[. . . ] If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made. Fragmentation - This value should also remain at its default setting of 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase your Fragmentation Threshold within the value range of 256 to 2, 346. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor performance. DTIM - (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) 3 is the default setting. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. Default is 1-2-5. 5-11Mbps. 28 TX Rates ­ Select the data rate. (High traffic networks should use the shorter preamble type. ) The preamble defines the length of the CRC block used in communication between the Access Point and the roaming wireless Network adapters. (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) Authentication - Select Open system, Shared Key or Auto Open System - The DI-514 will be visible to all devices on the network. Shared Key - In this mode, in order to access the DI-514 on the network, the device must be listed in the MAC Address Control List. Auto - In this mode, all devices on the network can access the DI-514. All devices on a network must share the same SSID (Service Set Identifier) to establish communication. Choose Disable if you do not wish to broadcast the SSID over the network. Tools > Admin Admin At this page, the DI-514 administrator can change the system password. There are two accounts that can access the Broadband Router's WebManagement interface. Remote Management Remote Management allows the DI-514 to be configured from the Internet by a web browser. A username and password is still required to access the Web-Management interface. In general, only a member of your network can 29 browse the built-in web pages to perform "Administrator" tasks. This feature enables you to perform "Administrator" tasks from the remote (Internet) host. IP Address: Internet IP address of the computer that has access to the Broadband Router. It is not recommended that you set the IP address to * (star), because this allows any Internet IP address to access the Broadband Router, which could result in a loss of security for your network. If you elect to enable Remote Management, enter the IP Address of your remote location. Example: http://x. x. x. x:8080 whereas x. x. x. x is the WAN IP address of the Broadband Router and 8080 is the port used for the Web-Management interface. Tools > Time Time The system time is the time used by the DI-514 for scheduling services.
