Description:
This document describes how to configure the "maximum distance" for an outdoor point-to-point link.
Requirements:
Explanation:
Large distances between transmitter and receiver give rise to increasing delays in the runtime for the data packets. If a certain limit is exceeded, the responses to transmitted packets no longer arrive within a given time limit.
By entering the maximum distance, the wait time for the responses can be increased to suit. This distance is converted into a delay as required by the data packets for wireless communications.
The actual distance between your wireless stations should not exceed this value. Otherwise performance losses of up to 90% may be the result.
Procedure:
1) To configure the maximum distance for the access point or WLAN router, go to the menu Configuration -> Wireless LAN -> General -> Physical WLAN Settings -> Radio.
2) In the field for Maximum distance you can enter a value for the distance. The actual distance between your wireless stations should not exceed this value. Otherwise, they may no longer be reached by this device. |
