Chapter 6 Wireless Tab For client devices connected to a root AP with MAXtream enabled, you can choose "Latency First" or "Throughput First" mode to better fit your application. For example, VoIP has a high demand for low latency. If you need a good experience for VoIP, you can select Latency First. Games and downloads ask for high throughput. You should select Throughput First to guarantee the high throughput for the games and downloads. Please choose Auto Adjust if you are not sure or you have no special requirements. Wireless Client Settings When this device is configured in the modes of Client, Repeater, Bridge and AP Client Router, the function of wireless client settings is available. SSID of AP MAC of AP WDS Security Mode You can enter the SSID of the specific AP manually to connect to it or directly survey all the APs around by clicking Survey. Displays the MAC address of the root AP. It's possible that two or more networks use the same SSID in the AP list. Lock to AP can make the device connect to the specified AP you had connected before the next time. WDS (Wireless Distribution System) is a communication system among multiple wireless local area networks established between APs through wireless connection. In this system, only data frames with four address fields can be transparently forwarded at the link layer. In a WDS network, it is necessary that the root AP supports forwarding of data frames four address fields. If not, only data frames with the ARP/IP/PPPOE protocol can be forwarded among APs.  Enable - Forward data frames to use four address fields.  Disable - Forward data frames to use three address fields.  Auto - The system automatically detects whether root device supports data frames with the format of three/four address fields, giving priority to the format of four address fields. The selection of Auto is recommended. Select the security mode of this device. To access the wireless network of root AP, the security mode should be set the same as that of root AP.  None - Select this option if the root AP has no encryption. At the moment, it's no need to enter a password to access the wireless network of root AP.  WPA-PSK - Select this option if the security mode of the root AP is WPA-PSK. Enter the parameters including the version and encryption of WPA and PSK key, which must coincide with those of the root AP. - 59 -

of wireless client settings is available.
SSID of AP
You can enter the SSID of the specific AP manually to connect to it or directly
survey all the APs around by clicking
Survey
.
MAC of AP
Displays the MAC address of the root AP. It’s possible that two or more networks
use the same SSID in the AP list.
Lock to AP
can make the device connect to the
specified AP you had connected before the next time.
WDS
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) is a communication system among multiple
wireless local area networks established between APs through wireless
connection. In this system, only data frames with four address fields can be
transparently forwarded at the link layer. In a WDS network, it is necessary that
the root AP supports forwarding of data frames four address fields. If not, only
data frames with the ARP/IP/PPPOE protocol can be forwarded among APs.
Enable
– Forward data frames to use four address fields.
Disable
– Forward data frames to use three address fields.
Auto
– The system automatically detects whether root device supports data
frames with the format of three/four address fields, giving priority to the
format of four address fields. The selection of Auto is recommended.
Security Mode
Select the security mode of this device. To access the wireless network of root
AP, the security mode should be set the same as that of root AP.
None
- Select this option if the root AP has no encryption. At the moment, it’s
no need to enter a password to access the wireless network of root AP.
WPA-PSK
