Maximum Transmission Rate 
Bridge’s maximum wireless transmission rate. The Bridge will 
attempt the highest specified rate and fallback to a lower rate if 
necessary. Default is 5.5 Mbps. 
Network IP Settings
 
Enable DHCP Client 
When checked, enables the Dynamic Host Configuration 
Protocol (DHCP). For this parameter to work, the AP or 
network must support DHCP. 
DHCP Client Name 
Bridge’s DHCP client name. 
Enable DHCP Fixed Interval 
Retransmission  
Enables the interval value below. 
DHCP Retransmit Interval 
Configures the DHCP request retransmission interval (in 
seconds) to use when the DHCP retransmission is set to fixed. 
 
This is an integer with a range of 1-64. 
Default is 15. 
DHCP Acquire Time Limit 
Configures the number of seconds that the Module should wait 
to acquire its IP configuration using DHCP before applying the 
DHCP fallback algorithm (if enabled). 
 
This is an integer with a range of 1-255 seconds. 
Default is 150. 
 
Note: “0” will turn of IP Fallback. 
Enable DHCP Fallback to fixed IP 
Enables the DHCP fallback algorithm.  
When the DHCP fallback algorithm is enabled, the Module will 
apply the configuration from DHCP Fallback IP, Subnet, 
and Gateway 
as the static IP configuration, if the DHCP 
client has not received its IP configuration after DHCP 
Acquire Time Limit
 seconds. 
 
unchecked = Disable DHCP fallback algorithm (default) 
checked = Enable DHCP fallback algorithm 
Enable DHCP Fallback to last 
DHCP IP. 
When enabled, use the last good DHCP IP address as the 
fallback. Each time the IP address is successfully received via 
DHCP, the fallback IP address is updated to use the new IP 
address. It is *not* saved across reboots unless DHCP 
Fallback Persist is also enabled. This setting is ignored if 
DHCP Fallback is not enabled. 
Save current DHCP IP Address as 
Fallback DHCP IP Address 
When the DHCP Fallback Auto address is updated, enabling 
this setting causes the fallback IP address to be saved to 
NVRAM, so that it is saved across reboots.  This setting is 
ignored if DHCP Fallback and DHCP Fallback Auto are not 
enabled. 
DHCP Fallback IP Address 
Configures the IP address used by the DHCP fallback 
algorithm. 
Default is
 
192.168.10.1.
