◗ Wireless Mode - The wireless mode only applies to Ad-hoc connections. If the Ethernet
Converter is making an Ad-hoc connection with an 802.11b client, then select '802.11b' from
the drop down menu. If an 802.11g client is connecting to the Ethernet Converter then select
the 'Auto - 802.11g / 802.11b' option.
◗ Basic Rates - The basic rate set only applies to Ad-hoc connections. Select the proper rate
set for Ad-hoc client the Ethernet Converter is going to associate to. If you are unsure, it is
recommended to leave this setting set to 'Auto'.
◗ Frame Bursting - Frame Bursting technology allows for quicker wireless throughput speeds
by shortening the overhead in each wireless packet. It is recommended to leave it enabled,
as having it enabled presents no disadvantages in most network scenarios.
◗ Wireless Output Power - The wireless output power setting changes the power of the Ether-
net Converter's internal radio. Reducing the output power can often reduce interference with
other devices. It is recommended to leave the output power set at 100% unless interference
with other networks or 2.4 GHz devices is apparent.
◗ Data Encryption - The data encryption table allows you to enter the necessary WEP or WPA
settings into the Ethernet Converter. This Ethernet Converter supports WEP 64, WEP 128,
TKIP, and AES. If WEP is selected, then a WEP key or series of WEP keys must be entered
into the WEP key field(s). Please select whether the specific key is ASCII or HEX from the pull
down list next to the key fields. If TKIP or AES is used, then enter the pre-shared key in the
WPA-PSK field.
