Wireless
Under 'Wireless', you can find important WLAN-related settings for your
access point:
'Access point name': Here you can assign your access point a name that
is meaningful to you (such as "Office").
'SSID': The Service Set Identity includes all devices belonging to the
wireless network, i.e. so that only devices with an identical SSID can
communicate directly with each other.
'Channel': Here, you can enter the channel for the MicroLink dLAN Wire-
less to use for sending and receiving (default setting: 1).
'Basic rates (Mbps)': This is the minimum data transfer rate, which every
computer on the network must achieve so as to communicate with other
devices on the LAN (default setting: all active).
'Supported rates (Mbps)': Maximum data rate supported by the MicroLink
dLAN Wireless (default setting: all active).
'Transmission rate': Rate at which the access point sends data.
'Preamble type': The 'Long' setting assures the greatest compatibility
with all available remote parties. The 'Short' setting can raise the data
transfer rate; however, interoperability with all remote parties cannot be
guaranteed.
Keep in mind that the settings you have configured only take effect if you con-
firm them by clicking Submit and restart the access point.
