ASUS Wireless-N Adapter

Wireless Network Key (WEP) - This option becomes configurable when you

select WEP in the Data encryption field. 64-bit WEP key uses 5 ASCII characters

(10 hexadecimal digits). 128-bit WEP key uses 13 ASCII (26 hexadecimal digits).

Key Format - Allows you to select the key format.

Key Length - Allows you to select the key length. For 64bits encryption, each

key consists of 10 hexadecimal digits or 5 ASCII characters. For 128bits

encryption, each key consists of 26 hexadecimal digits or 13 ASCII characters.

Keys as the default key.

Configuration - Advanced

The Advanced page is intended for experienced

users to set up additional parameters for the

WLAN adapter. We recommend that you keep

the default values.
RTS Threshold (0-2347) - The Request to

Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) function is

used to minimize collisions among wireless

stations. When RTS/CTS is enabled, the router

refrains from sending a data frame until another RTS/CTS handshake is completed.

Enable RTS/CTS by setting a specific packet size threshold. The default value (2347)

is recommended.
Fragmentation Threshold (26-2346) - Fragmentation is used to divide 802.11

frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to the destination.

Enable fragmentation by setting a specific packet size threshold. If there is an

excessive number of collisions on the WLAN , experiment with different fragmentation

values to increase the reliability of frame transmissions. The default value (2346) is

recommended for normal use.
Preamble Mode - Select the preamble mode. The default value is Auto.
