APR-2000/APR-2000P User’s Manual  

- 27 - 

than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not 

be enabled.  The AP sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a 

particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame.   

After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to 

Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. 

Xmit Power 

This value ranges from 1 - 100 percent, default value is 100 percent.   

A safe increase of up to 60 percent would be suitable for most users.   

Higher power settings are not recommended for users due to excess 

heat generated by the radio chipset, which can affect the life of the AP. 

Wireless Network 

Mode 

If you have Wireless-G and 802.11b devices in your network, then 

keep the default setting, BG Mixed mode.  If you have only 

Wireless-G devices, select G Mode.  If you would like to limit your 

network to only 802.11b devices, then select B Mode. 

Transmission 

Rate 

The default setting is 

Auto

.  The range is from 1 to 54Mbps.  The 

rate of data transmission should be set depending on the speed of your 

wireless network.  You can select from a range of transmission 

speeds, or keep the default setting, Auto, to have the AP automatically 

use the fastest possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback 

feature.  Auto-Fallback will negotiate the best possible connection 

speed between the AP and a wireless client. 

Preamble 

Values are Long and Short, default value is Long.  If your wireless 

device supports the short preamble and you are having trouble getting 

it to communicate with other 802.11b devices, make sure that it is set 

to use the long preamble 

SSID Broadcast 

When wireless clients survey the local area for wireless networks to 

associate with, they will detect the SSID broadcast by the AP.  To 

broadcast the AP SSID, keep the default setting, Enable.    If you do 

not want to broadcast the AP SSID, then select Disable. 

2. MAC Filter 

Use 

MAC Filter

  to allow or deny wireless clients to associate with APR-2000. You can 

manually add a MAC address or select the MAC address from 

Associated Clients

 that are 

currently associated with APR-2000.
