MAC Address Filter
DAP-1350 can be configured to deny or only allow wireless stations association by filtering MAC addresses. By selecting "Accept", DAP-1350 can only be associated with MAC addresses listed in the Authorization table. By selecting "Reject", DAP-1350 will only disassociate with MAC addresses listed.

MAC Address Filter - Enter the MAC address of the device you would like to be affected on selected Access Control type.

Advanced Wireless

Antenna Transmit Power - The antenna transmit power ranges from 12.5% (weak) to 100% (strong). The greater antenna transmit power, the longer the range of wireless communications. Select the power based on the coverage you desire for your DAP-1350. For security reasons, certain implementations require that the antenna transmit power be adjusted to provide wireless coverage within a limited area.
Beacon interval - Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a Beacon interval value between 1 and 1000. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds.
RTS threshold - This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value range between 1 and 2347 are recommended. The default value for RTS Threshold is set to 2346.
Fragmentation threshold - This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase your "Fragmentation" value within the value range of 256 to 2346. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance.
DTIM interval - Enter a value between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message(DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. AP clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value for DTIM interval is set to 1.

Add User limit
User Limit can set a limit upon the number of wireless clients. Using user limit, you can prevent scenarios where the DAP-1350 in your network shows performance degradation because it is handling heavy wireless traffic.

User Limit Settings - Check this option to enable User Limit function.
User limit(1-32) - Enter the numbers of wireless clients you want to set for a limitation in accessing your network.
