D-Link DAP-1160 User Manual 8 Section 2 - Configuration Advanced Wireless TX Rates: Transmit Power: Select the transmission rate for the network. Choose 100%, 50%(-3dB), 25% (-6dB), or 12. 5% (-9dB). Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a wireless network. This value should remain at its default setting of , 43. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value range between 56 and , 43 are recommended. Beacon Interval: RTS Threshold: Fragmentation: This value should remain at its default setting of , 346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly decrease your fragmentation threshold within the value range of 56 to , 346. Setting the fragmentation threshold too low may result in poor performance. DTIM Interval (Beacon Rate): Mode Setting: Preamble Type: A DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. The default vaule is 3 and the possible range of vaules is between 1 and 55. For the fastest speed, select G Mode to include only 80. 11g devices in your network. Select Mixed Mode to include 80. 11g and 80. 11b devices in your network. The Preamble defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the access point and roaming wireless network adapters. Note: High network traffic areas should use the short preamble type. WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) is only available in Access Point Mode. WMM provides basic QoS (Quality of Service) functions for wireless networks. WMM prioritizes traffic based on the 4 AC (Access Categories) of voice, video, best effort, and background. However, WMM does not provide guaranteed throughput. 9 WMM: D-Link DAP-1160 User Manual Section 2 - Configuration Advanced Network This function is available if the DAP-1160 is in WISP Client Router or WISP Repeater mode. This feature allows you to change the LAN settings. Please be aware that any changes to the factory default settings may affect the behavior of your network. Enable UPnP: Check this box to use the Universal Plug and Play (UPnPTM) feature. [. . . ] Refer to the section "Wireless Security" in this manual for detailed information on how to set it up. Wireless Modes There are basically two modes of networking: · Infrastructure ­ All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router. · Ad-Hoc ­ Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer. An Infrastructure network contains an AP or a wireless router. All the wireless devices, or clients, will connect to the wireless router or the AP. [. . . ]
