To view or change the advanced wireless settings: From the Internet adapter menu at http://www.mywifiext.net, under the Advanced heading, select Wireless Settings. The following screen displays You can view or configure the following settings: • Fragmentation Length (256-2346): This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field are fragmented. • CTS/RTS Threshold (1-2347): The packet size that is used to determine whether it should use the CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) mechanism for wireless packet transmission. • Preamble Mode. An Auto setting might give slightly better performance. A Long setting might provide a more reliable connection or slightly longer range. Using Push 'N' Connect (WPS) WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) lets you connect to a wireless network without entering its passphrase or wireless key. Instead, you use a button or enter a PIN to connect. If you have a NETGEAR router, this feature is called Push 'N' Connect. Look for the or symbol on the router to make sure the NETGEAR router supports WPS. For non-NETGEAR routers, refer to the user manual to determine if the router supports WPS. Note: The Universal WiFi Internet Adapter (WNCE2001) Installation Guide explains how to use WPS during installation. 16 | Chapter 2. Advanced Settings
