2-10 Installation and Configuration
v1.0, June 2008
• Data Rates for Channel Width=40MHz and Guard Interval=long: Best, 13.5
Mbps, 27 Mbps, 40.5 Mbps, 54 Mbps, 81 Mbps, 121.5 Mbps, 135 Mbps, 27 Mbps, 54
Mbps, 81 Mbps, 162 Mbps, 216 Mbps, 243 Mbps, 270 Mbps
The default is Best which is the optimal setting.
• Channel Width. From the pull-down menu, select the desired channel width.
• 20 MHz - This is the static, legacy mode. It gives the least throughput.
• 40 MHz - This is the static, high-throughput mode.
• 20/40 MHz - This is the dynamic, compatibility mode. Legacy clients can operate at
20 MHz and 11n clients can operate at 40 MHz.
• Guard Interval. From the pull-down menu, select the desired guard interval. The guard
interval protects from interference from other transmissions. The default is Auto.
• Output Power. From the pull-down menu, select the transmit power of the access point.
The options are Full, Half, Quarter, Eighth, and Minimum. Decrease the transmit power if
two or more APs are close together and use the same channel frequency. The default is
Full. (The transmit power may vary depending on the local regulatory regulations).
3. Click Apply to save your wireless settings.
Configuring QoS Settings
WMM Support. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Quality of Service (QoS) feature and part of the
802.11e standard. It provides for prioritization of wireless data packets from different applications
based on four access categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. Time-dependent
information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic.
For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS, both the application and the client
running that application must be WMM-enabled. Legacy applications that do not support WMM,
and applications that do not require QoS, are assigned to the best-effort category, which receives a
lower priority than voice and video.
