Select percentage of transmitted power.
RTS Threshold:
This is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node” problem,
“Hidden Note” is a situation in which two stations are within range of the same Access
Point, but are not within range of each other. Therefore, they are hidden nodes for each
other and can not detect each other. This mechanism is a way to prevent data collision
when WLAN equipments require transmission.
Fragment Threshold
: Fragmentation mechanism is used for improving the efficiency
when high traffic flows along in the wireless network.
3-1-2. Authentication and Security:
If an authentication or security setting is configured in your Access Point or router, you
must enable this function to ensure successful connection. Use the following tab to
configure data security and ID authentication (see
Figure 3-5
