N Data Rate Channel Width Preamble Type Broadcast ESSID CTS Protect TX Power WMM Set the data rate of 802.11n clients, available options are MCS 0 to MCS 7. 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 used by wireless signals from the travel router). It's suggested you select "Auto 20/40MHz". Do not change to "20 MHz" unless you know what effect that will have. Set the wireless radio preamble type. Please do not modify the default value if you don't know what this does, the default value is "Short Preamble". Decide if the device will broadcast its own ESSID. You can hide the ESSID of your access point (set the option to "Disable"), so only people who know the ESSID of your access point can connect to it. Enabling this setting will reduce the chance of radio signal collisions between 802.11b and 802.11g wireless access points. It's recommended to set this option to "Auto". You can set the output power of the wireless radio. Unless you're using the access point in a very large space, you may not require 100% output power. This will enhance security (malicious/unknown users in distant areas will not be able to reach your access point). WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) technology can improve the performance of certain network applications, such as audio/video streaming, network telephony (VoIP), and others. When you enable WMM, the access point will define the priority of different kinds of data, to give higher priority to applications which require instant responses. This improves the performance of such network applications. 50

N Data Rate
Set the data rate of 802.11n clients,
available options are MCS 0 to MCS 7. I
t’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.
Channel Width
Select wireless channel width (bandwidth
used by wireless signals from the travel
router
). It’
s suggested you select
“
Auto
20/40MHz
”
.
Do not change to “20 MHz”
unless you know what effect that will have.
Preamble Type
Set the wireless radio preamble type.
Please
do not modify the default value if you
don’
t know what this does, the default
value is
“
Short Preamble
”
.
Broadcast ESSID
Decide if the device will broadcast its own
ESSID. You can hide the ESSID of your access
point (set the option to
“
Disable
”
), so only
people who know the ESSID of your access
point can connect to it.
CTS Protect
Enabling this setting will reduce the chance
of radio signal collisions between 802.11b
and 802.11g wireless access points. It’s
recommended to set this option to
“
Auto
”
.
TX Power
You can set the output power of the
wireless radio. Unless you’re using th
e
access point in a very large space, you may
not require 100% output power.
This will
enhance security (malicious/unknown
users in distant areas will not be able to
reach your access point).
WMM
WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) technology can
improve the performance of certain
network applications, such as audio/video
streaming, network telephony (VoIP), and
others. When you enable WMM, the access
point will define the priority of different
kinds of data, to give higher priority to
applications which require instant
responses. This improves the performance
of such network applications.
