Chapter 7 Wireless LAN Figure 66 Advanced The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 37 Wireless LAN: Advanced LABEL DESCRIPTION Wireless Advanced Setup RTS/CTS Threshold Enter a value between 0 and 2432. Fragmentation This is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between Threshold 256 and 2432. Output Power Set the output power of the ZyXEL Device in this field. This control changes the strength of the ZyXEL Device's antenna gain or transmission power. Antenna gain is the increase in coverage. Higher antenna gain improves the range of the signal for better communications. If there is a high density of APs within an area, decrease the output power of the ZyXEL Device to reduce interference with other APs. The options are Maximum, Middle and Minimum. Preamble Select Long preamble if you are unsure what preamble mode the wireless adapters support, and to provide more reliable communications in busy wireless networks. Select Short preamble if you are sure the wireless adapters support it, and to provide more efficient communications. Select Dynamic to have the ZyXEL Device automatically use short preamble when wireless adapters support it, otherwise the ZyXEL Device uses long preamble. 802.11 Mode Select 802.11b Only to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices to associate with the ZyXEL Device. Select 802.11g Only to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the ZyXEL Device. Select Mixed to allow either IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the ZyXEL Device. The transmission rate of your ZyXEL Device might be reduced. Max. Frame Burst Enable Maximum Frame Burst to help eliminate collisions in mixed-mode networks (networks with both IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b traffic) and enhance the performance of both pure IEEE 802.11g and mixed IEEE 802.11b/g networks. Maximum Frame Burst sets the maximum time, in micro-seconds, that the ZZyXEL Device transmits IEEE 802.11g wireless traffic only. Type the maximum frame burst between 0 and 1800 (650, 1000 or 1800 recommended). Enter 0 to disable this feature. Back Click Back to return to the previous screen. 116 P-660HW-Dx v2 User's Guide

LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Wireless Advanced Setup
RTS/CTS
Threshold
Enter a value between 0 and 2432.
Fragmentation
Threshold
This is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between
256 and 2432.
Output Power
Set the output power of the ZyXEL Device in this field. This control changes the
strength of the ZyXEL Device's antenna gain or transmission power. Antenna gain
is the increase in coverage. Higher antenna gain improves the range of the signal
for better communications. If there is a high density of APs within an area, decrease
the output power of the ZyXEL Device to reduce interference with other APs.
The options are
Maximum
,
Middle
and
Minimum
.
Preamble
Select
Long
preamble if you are unsure what preamble mode the wireless adapters
support, and to provide more reliable communications in busy wireless networks.
Select
Short
preamble if you are sure the wireless adapters support it, and to
provide more efficient communications.
Select
Dynamic
to have the ZyXEL Device automatically use short preamble when
wireless adapters support it, otherwise the ZyXEL Device uses long preamble.
802.11 Mode
Select
802.11b Only
to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the ZyXEL Device.
Select
802.11g Only
to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the ZyXEL Device.
Select
Mixed
to allow either IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the ZyXEL Device. The transmission rate of your ZyXEL
Device might be reduced.
Max. Frame
Burst
Enable
Maximum Frame Burst
to help eliminate collisions in mixed-mode
networks (networks with both IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b traffic) and enhance
the performance of both pure IEEE 802.11g and mixed IEEE 802.11b/g networks.
Maximum Frame Burst
sets the maximum time, in micro-seconds, that the
ZZyXEL Device transmits IEEE 802.11g wireless traffic only.
Type the maximum frame burst between 0 and 1800 (650, 1000 or 1800
recommended). Enter 0 to disable this feature.
