Preamble Type

Select the preamble type (long or short) for the

network packet. When you’re using this router in a

heavily-loaded network environment, select ‘Short

preamble’ will help to improve network

performance.

However, not every network client works with

short preamble (especially certain 802.11b

only wireless clients). If you found that some

wireless clients can’t connect to this router

when you select ‘Short Preamble’, please

select ‘Long Preamble’.

Broadcast SSID

By selecting ‘Enabled’ here, this router will

broadcast its SSID to all wireless clients so they

can connect to this router. However, there will be

some security risk to let everyone know this

router’s SSID.

By selecting ‘Disabled’ here, this router will not

broadcast its SSID, so only client who know this

router’s SSID is able to connect to this router, and

therefore security level is improved.

IAPP

IAPP stands for Inter-Access Point Protocol, If

your wireless clients will roam between access

points, you can select ‘Enabled’ here.

802.11g Protection

When this wireless router is working in 802.11B +

802.11G mode, it’s high recommended to enable

802.11g protection to prevent data collision, and

this will improve network stability and

performance.

WMM

Select ‘Enabled’ to enable support for WMM

(Wireless MultiMedia). This will improve the

performance of video / audio data transmission.
