ASUS 802.11g Access Point 37

Chapter 3 - Software Conguration

Access Point

3.7.6 Advanced

This section allows you to set up

additional parameters for the wireless

router function. We recommend that

you use the default values for all items

in this window.

You may also setup operation modes

(AP or WDS, Station or URE) in this

window aside from the Quick Setup

screen.

Hide SSID - “No” is the default option so that wireless mobile users can

see your ASUS 802.11g AP’s SSID and associate with your Access Point.

If you select “Yes”, your ASUS 802.11g AP will not show in site surveys

by wireless mobile clients and they will have to manually enter your ASUS

802.11g AP’s SSID. To restrict access to your ASUS 802.11g AP , select

“Yes”. For security reasons, change the SSID other than the default SSID.

Set AP Isolated - Select Yes to prevent wireless client from communicating

with each other.

Data Rate (Mbps) - This eld allows you to specify the transmission rate.

Leave on “Auto” to maximize performance versus distance.

Basic Rate Set - This eld indicates the basic rates that wireless clients must

support. Use “1 & 2 Mbps” only when backward compatibility is needed for

some older wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of 2Mbps.

Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) – Fragmentation is used to divide

802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to the

destination. Set a specic packet size threshold to enable fragmentation.

If there is an excessive number of collisions on the WLAN, experiment

with different fragmentation values to increase the reliability of frame

transmissions. The default value (2346) is recommended for normal use.

RTS Threshold (0-2347) – The RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send)

function is used to minimize collisions among wireless stations. When

RTS/CTS is enabled, the router refrains from sending a data frame until

another RTS/CTS handshake is completed. Set a specic packet size

threshold to enable RTS/CTS. The default value (2347) is recommended.
