1.3.1 Access Point and Access Point WDS Mode
The Access Point Mode is the default mode of the device. It enables the bridging of wireless clients to
wired network infrastructure and enables transparent access and communication with each other. The
illustration belowshows a typical resources sharing application example using this device. The wireless
users are able to access the file server connected to the switch, through the access point in Access
Point Mode.
1.3.2 Access Point WDS Mode
This ismode is generally use for point-to-point or point-to-multi-point connection.
It is mainly use with StationWDS to build the point and multi-point connections.
1.3.3 Station Mode
In Station mode the device acts as a wireless client.When connected to an access point, it creates a
network link between the Ethernet network connected at this client device, and the wireless Ethernet
network connected at the access point.
In this example the workgroup PCs on the ethernet network connected to the Station device can access
the printer across the wireless connection to the access point where the printer is connected.

Access Point
This mode can be connected to Station mode, and then forwards all the traffic to the network
devices connected to the Ethernet devices of the Station.
Access Point WDS
This mode can be connected to StationWDS mode. UsingWDS protocol, it allows a client or
station device to bridge wireless traffic transparently.
Station:
This is a client mode that can be connected to the Access Point mode. It is used to bridge the
wireless connection to an Access Point. It forwards all the traffic to/fromthe network devices to
the Ethernet interface. This mode translates all the packets that pass through device to its own
MAC address, thus resulting in a lack of transparency.
Station WDS:
WDS is the acronymof Wireless Distribution System. It can be connected to the Access Point
WDS mode. It enables packet forwarding at layer 2 level. Unlike Station mode, it is fully transparent
at layer 2 level.
**Note: for Station WDS, Access Point WDS, Repeater WDS:
WDS protocol used is not defined as the standard, thus compatibility
I ssues between equipment fromdifferent vendors might arise.
Repeater WDS
This mode consists of a StationWDS and an Access Point WDS mode. The Repeater WDS
must first link up with an Access Point WDS, and then it can link up with a StationWDS. It
acts as an extension to the link and can add more Repeater WDS as necessary.
*Note: for Repeater WDS:
ESSID must be the same for the Remote AP and the Local AP.
The channels used will follow the Access Point WDS that it first linked up to.

20MHz to be more resilient to the interference. In situation when auto fall back did not
happened, manually changing channel spectrum width to 20MHz will to help reduce interference
on the link and improve performance.
* Note: 40MHz bandwidth is non-standard for 802.11n/g mode operation. If you
experience unstable performance change Channel SpectrumWidth to 20M.
Channel Frequency
This is frequency selection you can set for device to operate on. The frequency range

available depends on the country domain you select in Country Code. For 5GHz frequency
range some have DFS characteristics earmarked by regulations. Selecting one of these
frequencies for operation may affect and delay of 2 minutes or more (possibly up to 10
minutes in some situations) for device to attempt to establish a connection.
Auto: When checked, during startup, device automatically select the least interfering
channels(or frequency) for the operation.
Data Rate
Data Rates consist of both the legacy rates and the MCS (Modulation Coding Scheme Only for
802.11n) rates.
6 54Mbps are Legacy Rates
MCS0 to MCS7 are 802.11n rates, which uses only 1 stream.
MCS8 to MCS15 are 802.11n rates, which uses 2 streams.
Auto: The data rate selected will follow an advanced rate algorithm that takes into condition
the amount of errors at the data rate and fine tune to the best data rate it can use.
Transmit Power
The maximum transmit power displayed is determined by the country code and the
maximum transmit power of the miniPCI that is being used.
*Note on changing channels:
When the operator changes the channels and if this new frequency have higher
power output permitted by regulation, the power previously selected low power
level will remains unchanged. You need to readjust the power level to in order to take
advantage higher output power available for the channel
Rate Aggressiveness
Allows user to reduce or increase transmit rate while still remain in Fully Auto Algorithm.
There are 2 scenarios that Rate Aggressiveness is useful. Environment might be noisy at
times. Lower the throughput will ensure better stability. Rate Aggressiveness allows device
to reduce the transmit rate, so range or power can be higher. Choose a range of value
from -3,-2,-1.
Environment might be free of interference. But the fully auto algorithm might give low
throughput. Increase Rate Aggressiveness will increase transmit rate in this case to get
higher throughput. Choose a range of value from+3, +2, +1.
