It can facilitate effective spectrum usage, enabling 5GHz-capable clients to associate with AP's 5GHz radio and offloading air utilization in 2.4GHz-band.

This configuration allows segregate temporary guest WiFi usage with individual SSID, security, and DHCP settings.

When a weakening wireless link between Access Point and client is detected below specified RSSI, the AP will encourage client to connect to the surrounding AP with stronger signal.

If the feature is enabled with specified VLAN ID, the device will only allow management access with the same specified VLAN ID.

This is to specify threshold packet size for RTS/CTS; a small number may cause RTS/CTS frames to be sent more often and consume more bandwidth.

For enhanced transmit efficiency, it can merge multiple data frames upon specified number of frames or bytes into one aggregated frame for transmission on 2.4GHz.

Block the communication between the associated clients under the same WLAN.

When this option is checked with specified VLAN ID in a SSID profile, the traffics from this SSID will be tagged with this VLAN ID upon entering LAN bridge.

Unicast conversion method allows a WLAN AP to have a direct relationship with each client to transmit original multicast-like traffics on a one-to-one basis, establishing individual sessions between the transmission server and each client. This method will add additional bandwidth overhead on the unicast server upon each additional client.

Multicast transmission is a one-to-many group communication methodology in which a WLAN AP forwards all broadcast traffics from a multicast source to a client subnet where multiple client devices are listening.

Enter a value for the minimum received signal strength indicator (RSSI) required for dual-band wireless clients to associate to the 5GHz band. If the client’s RSSI value drops below this threshold, it will only be able to connect to the 2.4GHz band. The recommended value is -60 ~ -80.

Automatically balances the number of newly connected clients across both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. For example, the value 75 indicates that the AP will place 75% of all newly connected clients whose RSSI is above threshold onto the 5GHz band while the remaining 25% of the newly connected clients will be left on the 2.4GHz band. The default value is 75.

Data frames will be sent out at the lowest selected rate. Client devices must use either the lowest selected rate or a faster one.

CSMA (Traditional) is the standard access mode used in 802.11 networks and can be used for both access point and client device/station connectivity. TDMA is a proprietary access mode that can provide significant benefits in performance and capacity in 802.11 point to point and point to multi-point bridge applications between wireless access points. Through the use of dynamic time slot allocation to client/station access points, TDMA can eliminate data collisions and manage airtime more efficiently for active and inactive client/station access points compared to conventional CSMA.

To have better QoS under EnJet mode, the maximum number of clients is 4.

In EnJet mode, the AP will assign time slots for each client’s data transmission. The larger the slot, the faster the data transmission.

In EnJet mode, the client bridge/WDS station’s data transmission is prioritized by data. High level means a longer transmission time. (The time ratio is 10:5:1.)
