When should this rule occur?<br />

Chapter 4 Creating a Wireless Network<br />

Displays the time during which the rule is active. To configure schedule rules, see<br />

chapter 9, “Advanced Settings.”<br />

Network<br />

Select the type of connection being configured from this drop-down list<br />

(options: Network [Home/Office], Broadband Connection, or DMZ).<br />

MTU<br />

MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) specifies the largest packet size permitted<br />

for Internet transmission. “Automatic” sets the MTU at 1500. Other choices<br />

include “Automatic by DHCP,” which sets the MTU according to the DHCP connection,<br />

and “<strong>Manual</strong>,” which allows the user to set the MTU.<br />

Transmission Rate<br />

Select the wireless transmission rate from the drop-down list, or select “Auto”<br />

to have the Router automatically select the best transmission rate. This setting<br />

adjusts the bit rate of the Router’s wireless transmissions.<br />

CTS Protection Mode<br />

Activating CTS (Clear to Send) Protection Mode allows mixed 802.11b/g networks<br />

to operate at maximum efficiency. Select “Auto” from the drop-down list<br />

to activate. Select “None” to deactivate .<br />

Beacon Interval<br />

Beacons are transmitted by the Router to help identify wireless networks. If beacons<br />

are transmitted too infrequently, networks may become hard to reach; if<br />

too frequently, they become a resource waste. Enter the desired beacon interval<br />

value (in milliseconds) in this text box.<br />
