DTIM Period Data Rate N Data Rate Channel Width Preamble Type Broadcast ESSID WMM default value is 100 Set the DTIM period of wireless radio. Do not modify default value if you don't know what it is, default value is 3 Set the wireless data transfer rate to a certain value. Since most of wireless devices will negotiate with each other and pick a proper data transfer rate automatically, it's not necessary to change this value unless you know what will happen after modification. Set the data rate of 802.11 Draft-N clients, available options are MCS 0 to MCS 15, it's safe to set this option to 'Auto' and it's not necessary to change this value unless you know what will happen after modification. Select wireless channel width (bandwidth taken by wireless signals of this range extender/access point). It's suggested to select 'Auto 20/40MHz'. Do not change to '20 MHz' unless you know what it is. Set the type of preamble of wireless radio, Do not modify default value if you don't know what it is, default setting is 'Short Preamble'. Decide if the wireless range extender/access point will broadcast its own ESSID or not. You can hide the ESSID of your wireless range extender/access point (set the option to 'Disable'), so only people those who know the ESSID of your wireless range extender/access point can get connected. WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) technology, which can improve the performance of certain network applications, like audio/video streaming, network telephony (VoIP), and others. When you enable WMM function, the range extender/access point will define the priority of different kinds of data, to give higher priority to applications which require instant responding. Therefore you can improve the performance of such network applications. 46
