ZyXEL G-170S User's Guide 2.4 Preamble Type Preamble is used to signal that data is coming to the receiver. Short preamble increases performance as less time sending preamble means more time for sending data. All IEEE 802.11b/g compliant wireless adapters support long preamble, but not all support short preamble. Select Auto to have the G-170S automatically use short preamble when access point or wireless stations support it; otherwise the G-170S uses long preamble. Note: The G-170S and the access point/wireless stations MUST use the same preamble mode in order to communicate. 32 Chapter 2 Wireless LAN Network
