3. Software Access Point Chapter 3 - Software Configuration 3.7.6 Advanced This section allows you to set up additional parameters for the wireless router function. We recommend that you use the default values for all items in this window. You may also setup operation modes (AP or WDS, Station or URE) in this window aside from the Quick Setup screen. Hide SSID -"No" is the default option so that wireless mobile users can see your ASUS 802.11g AP's SSID and associate with your Access Point. If you select "Yes", your ASUS 802.11g AP will not show in site surveys by wireless mobile clients and they will have to manually enter your ASUS 802.11g AP's SSID. To restrict access to your ASUS 802.11g AP , select "Yes". For security reasons, change the SSID other than the default SSID. Set AP Isolated - Selecting Yes to prevent wireless client from communicating with each other. Data Rate (Mbps) - This field allows you to specify the transmission rate. Leave on "Auto" to maximize performance versus distance. Basic Rate Set - This field indicates the basic rates that wireless clients must support. Use "1 & 2 Mbps" only when backward compatibility is needed for some older wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of 2Mbps. Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) - Fragmentation is used to divide 802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to the destination. Set a specific packet size threshold to enable fragmentation. If there is an excessive number of collisions on the WLAN, experiment with different fragmentation values to increase the reliability of frame transmissions. The default value (2346) is recommended for normal use. RTS Threshold (0-2347) - The RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send) function is used to minimize collisions among wireless stations. When RTS/CTS is enabled, the router refrains from sending a data frame until another RTS/CTS handshake is completed. Set a specific packet size threshold to enable RTS/CTS. The default value (2347) is recommended. ASUS 802.11g Access Point 37
