Section 3 - Configuration Advanced Advanced Wireless MAC Cloning Mode: This feature controls the MAC Address of the Bridge as seen by other devices (wired or wireless). WLAN Card: If set to Ethernet Client, the MAC Address from the first Ethernet client that transmits data through the Bridge will be used. This setting is useful when connected to an Xbox or if there is only one Ethernet device connected to the Bridge. When multiple Ethernet devices are connected to the Bridge, it may not be obvious which MAC Address is being used. Ethernet Client: If set to WLAN Card, the MAC Address of the WLAN Card (typically written on the back of the card) will be used. When multiple Ethernet devices are connected to the Bridge, the MAC Address of the Bridge will not change. Transmit Power: Set the transmit power of the antennas. RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2436. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made. Fragmentation The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding Threshold: the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting. Short GI: Check this box to reduce the guard interval time therefore increasing the data capacity. However, it's less reliable and may create higher data loss. D-Link DAP-1555 User Manual 56

This feature controls the MAC Address of the Bridge
as seen by other devices (wired or wireless).
If set to
Ethernet Client
, the MAC Address from
the first Ethernet client that transmits data through
the Bridge will be used. This setting is useful when
connected to an Xbox or if there is only one Ethernet
device connected to the Bridge. When multiple
Ethernet devices are connected to the Bridge, it
may not be obvious which MAC Address is being
used.
If set to
WLAN
Card, the MAC Address of the
WLAN Card (typically written on the back of the
card) will be used. When multiple Ethernet devices
are connected to the Bridge, the MAC Address of
the Bridge will not change.
Set the transmit power of the antennas.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2436. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should
be made.
The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding
the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting.
Check this box to reduce the guard interval time therefore increasing the data capacity. However, it’s less reliable and may
create higher data loss.
