D-Link DWL-G520+ [15/43] Configuration utility

To communicate on the network all devices must have the

same settings for the following properties:

SSID - (Service Set Identifier) is a name that identifies a wireless network. Access

Points and wireless clients attempting to connect to a specific WLAN (Wireless Local

Area Network) must use the same SSID. The default setting is default.

Wireless Mode - Click on the pull-down menu; select from the following options:

Infrastructure - connecting the WLAN using an Access Point. (The default

setting.)

Ad-Hoc – wireless mode used when connecting directly to a computer equipped

with a wireless adapter in a peer-to-peer environment.

Channel – The default channel setting is channel 6. However, the DWL-G520+ will

automatically select the channel to match the channel setting for the selected Access

Point. In Ad Hoc mode, the channel must be manually set to the same channel for

each wireless adapter.

TX Rate - Select the transmission rate on the network. Auto is the default setting.

TX rates are automatically determined by the DWL-G520+ depending on the distance

from the access point.

Preamble - Auto is the default setting. The Preamble defines the length of the CRC

block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data

transmission errors) for communication between the Access Point and the wireless

Network adapters. Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble

type.

Power Mode – Select from three modes:

Continuous Access Mode-this default setting consumes the most power

Maximum Power Save-this setting consumes the least power

Power Save- this setting consumes a moderate amount of power

If any changes are made to the configuration of the wireless adapter, click Apply

to save the changes.
