Transmission Data Rate
If the above TX Data rate is set to fixed, the selected data rate is the MatchPort’s
fixed transmission rate. If the above TX Data rate is set to auto fallback, the
selected data rate is the MatchPort’s maximum data rate. Lower data rates allow for
larger distances. It may also be required when communicating with older devices.
The default is 54 Mbps.
TX Data rate 0=1, 1=2, 2=5.5, 3=11
4=18, 5=24, 6=36, 7=54 Mbps (0) ? _
Minimum TX Data Rate
Selects the minimum data rate the device will use when auto-fallback is enabled. The
default is 1 Mbps.
Note: If Auto Rate Fallback is enabled and a minimum TX data rate other than
1Mbps is configured, the radio will operate in Single Rate Drop mode. This means
that if a rate drop becomes necessary, the radio will drop from the maximum rate to
the lowest rate, ignoring all rates in between. This reduces the potential number of
packet retransmission attempts, because the radio attempts to transmit a packet
three times before transitioning to the next lowest TX rate.
Note: If the Minimum TX Data Rate is set for 54 Mbps for the minimum and
maximum, the auto fallback capability is eliminated.
Max TX Failures
Determines the maximum number of consecutive transmit packet failures before the
device will drop its association with the AP and attempt to establish a new one. The
range of attempts is 6 to 64; 255 equals disabled. The default is 6 failed attempts.
Enable Power Management
This allows the software to turn off the radio when expecting not to receive or
transmit soon. This feature reduces the power consumption by up to 140 mA.
Enabling power management increases the response time, because the radio needs
to start up again. The radio is enabled to synchronize and check for incoming
messages (every 100 ms).
Note: This option is not available when the Topology is set to Adhoc.

Enable Soft AP Roaming
If enabled, SmartRoam manages the dynamic list of APs belonging to the same
network as the AP to which the MatchPort is currently associated and stores relevant
selection criteria for this list. The MatchPort uses these criteria to identify a candidate
AP. If the candidate AP is not the current one, the MatchPort dissociates from the
current AP and associates to the candidate.
