Using “Auto” option can increase throughput. However, it can also increase error rate in some installations, due to increased sensitivity to radio-frequency reflections. Select the option that works best for your installation. MCS Fix MCS rate for HT rate. (Auto, 0~32) The Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) is a value that determines the modulation, coding and number of spatial channels. This parameter represents transmission rate. By default (Auto) the fastest possible transmission rate will be selected.
WMM Power Saving An option that allows wireless clients such as notebooks or Laptops to save battery life by sending less transmission during idle times. Add a check mark to enable this option. PS Mode Used for specific application when using WMM Power Saving mode is enabled, use this feature to help with Quality of Service (QoS) settings; these settings are polled by the priority given to the option in this section.
4.2.6 WPS You can setup security easily by choosing PIN or PBC method to do Wi-Fi Protected Setup. PIN Start or PBC Start Enable the WPS feature.
PIN Settings A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add to the router and use that as an authentication key to join the existing wireless network. Client PIN Shows the current value of the adapter. Renew PIN Create a random number that is a valid PIN. This becomes the adapter’s PIN. You can then copy this PIN to the wireless router’s WPS section. PBC Settings The push button method can be used to allow wireless clients to connect to the router without entering/remember any encryption keys.
