On the "Advanced" page:

  1. The first thing you will see is the "Card Power Management" page. The default is set to "Off". A switch to "On", will result in saving power but reduced performance.
  2. The second item is "Interface Robustness", which defaults to "Off". If you use wireless internet in the vicinity of a microwave or a 2GHz electromagnetic wave transmitter, you can switch this option to "On" for enhanced performance.
  3. he third item is the Access Point. If this switch is set to "Off", the wireless network interface will wait to send data until the Access Point is not being used. If there are two stations trying to use the Access Point at the same time, it will result in a jam, and neither station will be able to send data. If you switch this options to "On", it will enable the computer to be able to send an RTS (Request to Send) or a CTS (Clear to Send) communication, so long as the data message does not exceed the upper size limit. If this limit is exceeded, an RTS message will be sent to the Access Point for delayed processing. The Access Point will send CTS messages to other stations, using them to forward the RTS. Typically the internet connection can continue operating normally during this process.

On the "Admin" page, please leave everything set to default. If you need to change the settings please contact your network administrator.
