NETGEAR ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAG302v2 Reference Manual Table 4-1 describes the Advanced Wireless Parameters. Table 4-1 Advanced Wireless LAN Parameters Field Enable SuperG Mode RTS Threshold Fragmentation Length Beacon Interval DTIM Interval Preamble Type Description Click Enable to enable Super G Mode. The packet size used to determine whether the access point should use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) or the CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) mechanism for packet transmission. This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field will be fragmented. The Fragment Threshold value must be larger than the RTS Threshold value. Specifies the data beacon rate, which is between 20 and 1004. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message specifies the data beacon rate, which is between 1 and 255. A long transmit preamble may provide a more reliable connection or slightly longer range. A short transmit preamble gives better performance. Auto is the default Modifying QoS Queue Parameters Figure 4-3 shows the Quality of Service (QoS) queue section on the Advanced Wireless Settings page. For most networks, the default QoS queue parameter settings work well.Quality of Service provides you with the ability to specify parameters on multiple queues for increased throughput and better performance of differentiated wireless traffic, like Voice-over-IP (VoIP), other types of audio, video, and streaming media, as well as traditional IP data. The QoS options on the WAG302v2 are as follows: • Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM): Select Yes or No as required on the Advanced Wireless Settings menu. The default is No. WMM is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, wireless clients must also support WMM. • SpectraLink Enabled: When SpectraLink support is enabled, SVP traffic takes priority over all other traffic. The default is Enabled. Advanced Configuration 4-5 v1.0, May 2006
