the farther the transmission range. Power selection is not just a trade
off between coverage area and maximum supported clients. You also
have to ensure that high-power signals do not interfere with the
operation of other radio devices in the service area. (Default: 60mW;
Range: 60mW, 30mW, 15 mW)
S ECOND BSSID
This page configures a second VAP (virtual access point) on the ADSL
Router. Each VAP functions as a separate access point, and can be
configured with its own Service Set Identification (SSID) and security
settings. However, most radio signal parameters apply to both VAP
interfaces.
The VAPs function similar to a VLAN, with each VAP mapped to its own
VLAN ID. Traffic to specific VAPs can be segregated based on user groups
or application traffic. Each VAP can have up to 64 wireless clients, whereby
the clients associate with these VAPs the same as they would with a
physical access point.
