2.5 How to Improve the Transmission Capacity
It is important to use the PLC product complying with the following "correct rules",
because it can significantly improve the transmission capacity of the network.
For the PLC device without female socket, it is recommended to plug the device
directly into a wall socket, not to power stripe.
2.6 Wireless Roaming
Suppose that one GP-L200N and several APs run in the same network. The
GP-L200N or AP acts as one BSS, and has its coverage range. One wireless client
terminal (for example, a notebook PC or PDA) can realize roaming from one AP to
another AP correctly. In that case, the wireless client terminal can communicate
with the other devices within the GP-L200N and APs’ coverage.
In order to realize the wireless client roaming among different APs, you need to set
the GP-L200N and APs properly. Do as follows:
Set the same SSID for the GP-L200N and all APs.
The SSIDs of all the computers and PDAs should be consistent with the APs.
All the BSSs must use the same wireless channel.
If the encryption function is enabled, all the GP-L200N and APs should
configure the same encryption mode and the encryption key for establishing
connection.
The GP-L200N and APs must keep the wireless signal covering the whole
operation environment and the wireless signal should be continuous. Please
put the APs to the appropriate places for a better network coverage.
