This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The range is 0~2347. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the present RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. Fill the range from 0 to 2347 into this blank.

Key Length: For 64bits WEP key, either 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digitals leading by 0x can be entered. For 128bits WEP key, either 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits leading by 0x can be entered.
Note: 128 bits WEP is most secure, but has more encryption/decryption overhead. Note that all wireless devices
must support the same WEP encryption bit size and have the same key. Four keys can be entered here, but only one key can be selected at a time. The keys can be entered in ASCII or Hexadecimal. Select the item from drop-down list you wish to use.
Encryption Key: At most four keys can be set. A WEP key is either 10 or 26 hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, and A~F) based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit in the WEP drop-down list.
2. Encryption – WPA (WPA, WPA2 & WPA2 Mixed)
The WPA, WPA2 & WPA2 Mixed encrypt each frame transmitted from the radio using the pre-shared key (PSK) which entered from this panel or a key got dynamically through 802.1x.
WPA Authentication Mode
Enterprise (RADIUS): Please input the port, IP address, and password of authentication RADIUS Server.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an easy way to establish a secured wireless network
between SAPIDO Light N+ Broadband Router and wireless card. Users do not need to manually entering a creative, yet predictable security key on both Wi-Fi devices to prevent unwanted access to their wireless network. With WPS, it can automatically configure a wireless network with a network name (SSID) and strong WPA data encryption and authentication.
WPS can be enabled by 2 methods:
1. PBC (Push button configuration) Method, in which the user simply has to push a button, either an actual or a virtual one, on both WPS devices to connect.
2. PIN (Personal Identification Number) Method, in which a PIN has to be taken either from a sticker label or from the web interface of the WPS device. This PIN will then be entered in the AP or client WPS device to connect.
Please follow instructions below to enable the WPS function.
Start PBC:
(1.) Press the WPS button from SAPIDO Light N+ Broadband Router or click Start
PBC from menu “Wi-Fi Protected Setup”, and waiting for the WPS wireless card setting.

5.3 NAT
NAT is a method of mapping one or more IP addresses and/or services ports into different specified services, where NAT stands for Network Address Translation. It allows the internal IP addresses of many computers on a Local Area Network (LAN) to be translated to one public address, saving users’ cost. It also plays a security role by obscuring the true IP addresses of important machines from potential hackers on the Internet. For convenience, we called a router having the NAT facility as a NAT-enabled router.

6.2.2 Wireless Advanced Settings
Please follow the instructions to configure the Wireless settings.
1. Fragment Threshold
To identify the maximum length of packet, the overflow packet length wil be fragmentized. The allowed range is 256-2364, and default length is 2346 bytes.
2. RTS Threshold
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The range is 0~2347. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the present RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. Fill the range from 0 to 2347 into this blank.
3. Beacon Interval
Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a beacon interval value. The allowed setting range is 20-1024 ms.

4. Preamble Type
The preamble (also called “a header”) is a section of data at the head of a packet that contains information that wireless devices need when they send and receive packets. Short preambles improve throughput performance, but some wireless devices require long preambles. Select the suitable preamble as short or long preamble.
5. IAPP
Inter Access Point Protocol. Allow seamless roaming between Access Points in your wireless network. Coupled with superior RF performance
6. Protection

Enabling WEP can protect your data from eavesdroppers. If you do not need this feature, select “None” to skip the following setting. SAPIDO Light N+ Broadband Router supports both 64-bit and 128-bit encryption using the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm. Select the type of encryption you want to use (64 or 128 bit) and configure one to four WEP Keys. The “1280bit” method is more secure than the “64-bit”.
Use 802.1x Authentication Enable 802.1x Authentication so that a wireless node must be authenticated before it
can gain access to other LAN resources.
http://www.sapido.com.tw/ User Manual 1.0

Key Length: For 64bits WEP key, either 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digitals leading by 0x can be entered. For 128bits WEP key, either 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits leading by 0x can be entered.
Note: 128 bits WEP is most secure, but has more encryption/decryption overhead. Note that all wireless devices
must support the same WEP encryption bit size and have the same key. Four keys can be entered here, but only one key can be selected at a time. The keys can be entered in ASCII or Hexadecimal. Select the item from drop-down list you wish to use.
Encryption Key: At most four keys can be set. A WEP key is either 10 or 26 hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, and A~F) based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit in the WEP drop-down list.
2. Encryption – WPA (WPA, WPA2 & WPA2 Mixed)
The WPA, WPA2 & WPA2 Mixed encrypt each frame transmitted from the radio using the pre-shared key (PSK) which entered from this panel or a key got dynamically through
802.1x. WPA Authentication Mode
Enterprise (RADIUS): Please input the port, IP address, and password of authentication RADIUS Server.
Personal (Pre-Shared Key): Pre-Shared Key type is coding in ASCII, and the length is between 8 to 63 characters. If the coding is in Hex, the key length is 64 characters.
