Choose

Channel ID

Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.

To manually set the ZyXEL Device to use a channel, select a channel from the drop-

down list box.

Click MAINTENANCE and then the Channel Usage tab to open the Channel

Usage screen to make sure the channel is not already used by another AP or

independent peer-to-peer wireless network.

To have the ZyXEL Device automatically select a channel, click Scan instead.

Scan Click this button to have the ZyXEL Device automatically scan for and select the

channel with the least interference.

RTS/CTS

Threshold

(Request To Send) The threshold (number of bytes) for enabling RTS/CTS

handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS

handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC

service data unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to its

smallest value (256) turns on the RTS/CTS handshake. Enter a value between 256

and 2346.

Fragmentation

Threshold

The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed

messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter an even

number between 256 and 2346.

Beacon Interval When a wirelessly networked device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon

interval. This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again.

The interval tells receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in low-

power mode before waking up to handle the beacon. This value can be set from

20ms to 1000ms. A high value helps save current consumption of the access point.

DTIM Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is the time period after which broadcast

and multicast packets are transmitted to mobile clients in the Active Power

Management mode. A high DTIM value can cause clients to lose connectivity with

the network. This value can be set from 1 to 100.

Output Power Set the output power of the ZyXEL Device in this field. If there is a high density of

APs in an area, decrease the output power of the ZyXEL Device to reduce

interference with other APs. Select one of the following 100%(Full Power), 50%,

25%, 12.5% or Minimum. See the product specifications for more information on

your ZyXEL Device’s output power.

SSID Profile The SSID (Service Set IDentifier) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless

station is associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must

have the same SSID. Select an SSID Profile from the drop-down list box.

Configure SSID profiles in the SSID screen (see Section 10.2 on page 140 for

information on configuring SSID).

Note: If you are configuring the ZyXEL Device from a computer

connected to the wireless LAN and you change the

ZyXEL Device’s SSID or security settings, you will lose

your wireless connection when you press Apply to

confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of

your computer to match the ZyXEL Device’s new

settings.

Rates

Configuration

This section controls the data rates permitted for clients.

For each Rate, select an option from the Configuration list. The options are:

• Basic (1~11 Mbps only): Clients can always connect to the access point at this

speed.

• Optional: Clients can connect to the access point at this speed, when permitted

to do so by the AP.

• Disabled: Clients cannot connect to the access point at this speed.
