he following table describes parameters in this page:
Field Description
Transmission
Rate
Set the proper transmission rate.
Transmit Power
Select the proper transmission power from the drop-down
list. You can select 100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, or 20%.
Beacon Period
Beacon period indicates the frequency of the Powerline
Wireless Network Extender that sends the Beacon frame.
By default, the Powerline Wireless Network Extender
sends the beacon frame every other 100 ms. The range is
20~1024.
RTS Threshold
Set the CTS/RTS threshold. If the length of a packet is
greater than the value, the router sends an RTS frame to
the destination station for negotiation. After receiving the
RTS frame, the wireless station responds with a Clear to
Send (CTS) frame to the router, indicating that they can
communicate with each other. The default value is 2346.
Fragmentation
Threshold
Set the threshold of fragmentation length. If the length of
a packet is greater than the value, the packet is
automatically fragmented into several packets. Because
too many packets lead to low performance of the wireless
network, the value of fragmentation length cannot be too
small. The default value is 2346.
DTIM Interval
DTIM interval indicates the frequency for sending the
wireless packets. The range is 1~255 and the default
value is 10.
Preamble Type
Set the preamble type. The default is short preamble.
A preamble defines the length of the CRC correction
block that is used for the communication between your
router and wireless clients. Shorter preamble should
apply to a network with intense traffic.
AP Isolation
On indicates that the wireless clients connecting to
different SSIDs cannot communicate with each other.
Off indicates that the wireless clients connecting to
different SSIDs can communicate with each other.
