Glossary
Depending on the model of your Intel WiFi adapter, your adapter is compatible with 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n (draft 2.0) wireless standards. Operating at 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz frequency at data rates of up to 450 Mbps, you can now connect your computer to existing high-speed networks that use multiple access points within large or small environments. Your WiFi adapter maintains automatic data rate control according to the access point location and signal strength to achieve the fastest possible connection. All of your wireless network connections are easily managed by the WiFi connection utility. Profiles that are set up through the WiFi connection utility provide enhanced security measures with 802.1X network authentication.

"IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR ALL USERS OR DISTRIBUTORS:
Intel wireless LAN adapters are engineered, manufactured, tested, and quality checked to ensure that they meet all necessary local and governmental regulatory agency requirements for the regions that they are designated and/or marked to ship into. Because wireless LANs are generally unlicensed devices that share spectrum with radars, satellites, and other licensed and unlicensed devices, it is sometimes necessary to dynamically detect, avoid, and limit usage to avoid interference with these devices. In many instances Intel is required to provide test data to prove regional and local compliance to regional and governmental regulations before certification or approval to use the product is granted. Intel's wireless LAN's EEPROM, firmware, and software driver are designed to carefully control parameters that affect radio operation and to ensure electromagnetic compliance (EMC). These parameters include, without limitation, RF power, spectrum usage, channel scanning, and human exposure.
For these reasons Intel cannot permit any manipulation by third parties of the software provided in binary format with the wireless LAN adapters (e.g., the EEPROM and firmware). Furthermore, if you use any patches, utilities, or code with the Intel wireless LAN adapters that have been manipulated by an unauthorized party (i.e., patches, utilities, or code (including open source code modifications) which have not been validated by Intel), (i) you will be solely responsible for ensuring the regulatory compliance of the products, (ii) Intel will bear no liability, under any theory of liability for any issues associated with the modified products, including without limitation, claims under the warranty and/or issues arising from regulatory non-compliance, and (iii) Intel will not provide or be required to assist in providing support to any third parties for such modified products.
Note: Many regulatory agencies consider Wireless LAN adapters to be "modules", and accordingly, condition system-level regulatory approval upon receipt and review of test data documenting that the antennas and system configuration do not cause the EMC and radio operation to be non-compliant."

Set high throughput channel width to maximize performance. Set the channel width to Auto or 20MHz. Use 20MHz if 802.11n channels are restricted. This setting applies to 802.11n capable adapters only.
NOTE: This setting does not apply to the following adapters:
Intel® WiFi Link 1000
Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN
The 802.11n standard builds on previous 802.11 standards by adding multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO). MIMO increases data throughput to improve transfer rate. Select Enabled or Disabled to set the 802.11n mode of the WiFi adapter. Enabled is the default setting. This setting applies to 802.11n capable adapters only.
NOTE: To achieve transfer rates greater than 54 Mbps on 802.11n connections, WPA2*-AES security must be selected. No security (None) can be selected to enable network setup and troubleshooting.
An administrator can enable or disable support for high throughput mode to reduce powerconsumption or conflicts with other bands or compatibility issues.
Unless the other computers in the ad hoc network use a different channel from the default channel, there is no need to change the channel.
Value: Select the permitted operating channel from the list.
802.11b/g: Select this option when 802.11b and 802.11g (2.4 GHz) ad hoc band frequency is used.
802.11a: Select this option when 802.11a (5 GHz) ad hoc band frequency is used. This setting does not apply to the Intel® WiFi Link 1000 adapter.
NOTE: When an 802.11a channel is not displayed, initiating ad hoc networks is not supported for 802.11a channels.
Set power saving features for device to device (ad hoc) networks.
Disable: Select when connecting to ad hoc networks that contain stations that do not support ad hoc power management
Maximum Power Savings: Select to optimize battery life.
Ad Hoc QoS
Mode
Fat Channel
Intolerant
Mixed mode protection
Noisy Environment: Select to optimize performance or connecting with multiple clients.
Quality of Service (QoS) control in ad hoc networks. QoS provides prioritization of traffic from the access point over a wireless LAN based on traffic classification. WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) is the QoS certification of the Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA). When WMM is enabled, the WiFi adapter uses WMM to support priority tagging and queuing capabilities for Wi-Fi networks.
WMM Enabled (Default)
WMM Disabled
This setting communicates to surrounding networks that this WiFi adapter is not tolerant of 40MHz channels in the 2.4GHz band. The default setting is for this to be turned off (disabled), so that the adapter does not send this notification.
NOTE: This setting does not apply to the following adapters:
Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AG_
Intel® PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection
Use to avoid data collisions in a mixed 802.11b and 802.11g environment. Request to Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) should be used in an environment where clients may not hear each other. CTS-to-self can be used to gain more throughput in an environment where clients are in close proximity and can hear each other.

Enhancement
Lets you select a balance between power consumption and WiFi adapter performance. The WiFi adapter power settings slider sets a balance between the computer's power source and the battery.
Use default value: (Default) Power settings are based on the computer's power source. Manual: Adjust the slider for the desired setting. Use the lowest setting for maximum battery life. Use the highest setting for maximum performance.
NOTE: Power consumption savings vary based on Network (Infrastructure) settings.
This setting lets you define how aggressively your wireless client roams to improve connection to an access point.
Default: Balanced setting between not roaming and performance.
Lowest: Your wireless client will not roam. Only significant link quality degradation causes it to roam to another access point.
Highest: Your wireless client continuously tracks the link quality. If any degradation occurs, it tries to find and roam to a better access point.
Changes the value of the Packet Burst Control.
Enable: Select to enable throughput enhancement.
Disable: (Default) Select to disable throughput enhancement.
Transmit |
|
Default Setting: Highest power setting. |
Power |
|
Lowest: Minimum Coverage: Set the adapter to the lowest transmit power. Enables you to |
|
|
|
|
|
expand the number of coverage areas or confine a coverage area. Reduces the coverage area |
|
|
in high traffic areas to improve overall transmission quality and avoids congestion and |
|
|
interference with other devices. |
|
|
Highest: Maximum Coverage: Set the adapter to a maximum transmit power level. Select |
|
|
for maximum performance and range in environments with limited additional WiFi radio |
|
|
devices. |
|
|
NOTE: The optimal setting is for a user to always set the transmit power at the lowest |
|
|
possible level that is still compatible with the quality of their communication. This allows the |
|
|
maximum number of wireless devices to operate in dense areas and reduce interference with |
|
|
other devices that it shares the same radio spectrum with. |
NOTE: This setting takes effect when either Network (Infrastructure) or Device to Device (ad hoc) mode is used.
Wireless Mode Select which mode to use for connection to a wireless network:
|
|
802.11a only: Connect the wireless WiFi adapter to 802.11a networks only. Not |
