Fragment
Threshold

2346

Sets the maximum packet size to send a packet after dividing into small pieces.
(Range: 256 ~ 2346 bytes)
This setting transmits a packet after dividing into small pieces.
Communication overhead is increased but communication error can be reduced
in serious interference or noise environment.
In most cases, this setting is not used.
The setting as 2346 disables this function.

802.11h

Disable

Sets whether to use of the 802.11h spectrum management function.
(Option: Disable, Enable)
The 802.11h function is the system management standard to minimize the
influence of the interference in wireless communication.
If this setting is enabled, Eddy-WiFi automatically adjusts the communication
channel and the transmission strength to minimize the interference.

Wireless
Roaming

Disable

Set whether to use of the Roaming functions.
•Enable : Use Roaming function.
•Disable : Do not use Roaming function.

Roaming
Threshold

75 (dbm)

(Option: 61~89 dbm)
If you have different Access Points and have enabled roaming, you should also
set carefully the roaming threshold, which is the point (in signal strength) at
which Eddy-WiFi search for a new Access Point. If you set it too low, Eddy-WiFi
will spend to much time with a non optimal AP (getting a poorer throughput),
and if you set it too high the card will waste time searching for a new AP too
often.
The represented value is absolute. The real value should be the represented
value * (-).

Authenticati
on Mode

OPEN

(Option: OPEN, SHARED, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK, WPANONE)
An authentication mode defines the procedure that the 802.11 device uses when
it authenticates and associates with an access point.
•OPEN : Specifies IEEE 802.11 Open System authentication.
•SHARED : Specifies IEEE 802.11 Shared Key authentication that uses a
preshared WEP key.
•WPA-PSK : Specifies WPA security. Authentication is performed between the
supplicant and authenticator over IEEE 802.1X. Encryption keys are dynamic
and are derived through the preshared key used by the supplicant and
authenticator.
•WPA2-PSK : Specifies WPA2 security. Authentication is performed between the
supplicant and authenticator over IEEE 802 1X. Encryption keys are dynamic
and are derived through the preshared key used by the supplicant and
authenticator.
•WPA-NONE : Specifies WPA security. Specifies the use of a preshared key
without IEEE 802.1X authentication. Encryption keys are static and are derived
through the preshared key. This mode is applicable only to ad hoc network
types.

Encryption
Type

NONE

(Option: NONE, WEP, TKIP, AES)
Encryption modes define the set of cipher suites that can be enabled on the
802.11 device.
•NONE : Not used.
•WEP : Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the RC4-based algorithm specified in
the IEEE 802.11 specification.
•TKIP : Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is the RC4-based cipher suite
based on the algorithms defined in the WPA and IEEE 802.11i specifications.
