3.5. Configuring IEEE 802.11b-Related Settings
3.5.1. Communication
3.5.1.1. Basic
Basic IEEE 802.11b-related communication settings include AP functionality, Channel number,
Network name (SSID), Data rate, and Transmit power.
Fig. 36.Basic IEEE 802.11b communication settings.
For specific needs such as configuring the SMC2582W-B as a wireless LAN-to-LAN bridge,the AP
functionality can be disabled,so that no wireless client can associate with the SMC2582W-B.
The number of available RF channels depends on local regulations;therefore you have to choose an
appropriate regulatory domain to comply with local regulations.The SSID of a wireless client com-
puter and the SSID of the SMC2582W-B must be identical for them to communicate with each
other.
NOTE:The Regulatory domain setting of the SMC2582W-B sold in the U.S.and Canada is
not configurable.It is set to FCC by default.As a result,only channels from 1 to 11 are available.
If there is RF interference,you may want to reduce the Data rate for more reliable wireless trans-
mission.In most cases,leave the setting to Auto.
The transmit power of the RF module of the SMC2582W-B can be adjusted so that the RF coverage
of the SMC2582W-B can be changed.
