Tx Rate: There are several options in the drop-down menu: “Auto” and a

range of speeds from “1 Mbps” to “54 Mbps.” When “Auto” is selected,

the device automatically chooses the most suitable transmission rate.

The higher the data rate designated in the network, the shorter the

distance allowed between the adapter and the wireless stations.

Enable Tx Burst: This enables the adapter to deliver better throughput

in the same period and environment.

Enable TCP Window Size: The TCP window is the amount of data a

sender can deliver on a particular connection before it gets an

acknowledgment back from the receiver that it has gotten some of it.

When the router or AP the adapter is connecting to has set up the

TCP window, you can enable the parameter to meet the data size for

the router or AP connection. The larger the TCP window, the better

the performance.

Fast Roaming at [-70] dBm: To fast roam to a nearby network without

interrupting the wireless connection (such as a multimedia application

or a voice call), you can set this parameter. The adapter will fast roam

when the receive sensitivity (signal strength) is below the value entered.

Show Authentication Status Dialog: Select to display.

Select Your Country Region Code: Channel availability varies from

country to country; for example, USA (FCC) channels are 1-11, while

Europe (ETSI) channels are 1-13.

Enable CCX: Cisco Compatible Extensions, for radio monitoring and

fast roaming.

Turn on CCKM: During normal operation, LEAP-enabled client devices

mutually authenticate with a new AP by performing a complete LEAP

authentication, including communication with the main RADIUS server.
When a wireless LAN is configured for fast re-association, however,

LEAP-enabled client devices roam from one access point to another

without involving the main server. Using Cisco Centralized Key

Management (CCKM), an access point configured to provide wireless

domain services (WDS) takes the place of the RADIUS server and

authenticates the client so quickly that there is no perceptible delay

in voice or other time-sensitive applications.

Enable Radio Measurement: When this parameter is enabled, the Cisco
