Configuration Menu
This parameter accesses the 802.IQv1 sub-menu that enables the Psion Teklogix
proprietary 802.11b enhanced protocol, as described in “802.IQ v1 Sub-Menu”,
below, and in “Psion Teklogix’ 802.IQ Protocol” on page 9. For information on
802.IQv2, please refer to “802.IQ Version 2 Configuration” on page 192.
802.IQ v1 Sub-Menu
802.IQ is a Psion Teklogix proprietary optimized protocol that enables terminals to
operate on a wireless LAN in a network that supports both TCP/IP and 802.IQ pro-
tocol simultaneously.
802.IQv1 protocol is a wireless LAN protocol that provides greater performance in
an 802.11b wireless network than is possible with TCP/IP.
The 9150 bridges the 802.IQv1 wireless and TCP/IP wired networks. A terminal can
communicate with the 9150 access point using either TCP/IP or 802.IQv1 protocol.
Important: 802.IQ should only be enabled on wired 9150s.
Do not configure 802.IQ on wired 9150s bridging networks, since
802.IQ beacons would be sent through the WDS link from one
network to the other (see “Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
Configuration” on page 72).
The 802.IQv1 page is entered from the 802.IQ version 1 Configuration menu on the
IEEE 802.11 Direct Sequence Radio Parameters page.
