- The Data Rate corresponds to the speed at which 
data packets are transferred, both being sent and 
received.  It is set to Auto by default, but can be 
adjusted from 1Mbps (min) to 54Mbps (max). 
- The N Data Rate is specific to the transfer of data 
in the 802.11n standard.  The values vary from 
MCS0 to MCS15.
- Select the channel bandwidth.
Select bandwidth of 20MHz (on one channel) to limit 
interference, or define a higher bandwidth, 40MHz
(two channels), for transmission of your data in total 
comfort. 
- The  Preamble type defines the size of WiFi 
packets.  A Short preamble optimizes transfer rates 
at the expense of WiFi coverage.  A Long preamble 
(selected by default) favors WiFi coverage by way of 
longer latency times. 
- If you do not wish for your network to broadcast its 
name, select the Disabled radio button. 
If the SSID is hidden, the name of the network will 
not be displayed during detection by a WiFi client 
(the Network name (SSID) is empty in Hercules WiFi 
Station N, for example). 
Be sure to remember this name, as you will need it 
to connect your WiFi devices.
CTS (Clear-To-Send) protection guarantees the 
connection of wireless B, G and N devices to the 
Hercules Wireless 
N Access Point when using 
wireless B, G and N devices at the same time on the 
network. 
Enabling this function may reduce the speed of your 
Hercules Wireless N Access Point. 
5.2. Configuring the DHCP server 
This chapter will explain how to configure the internal DHCP server in WiFi Manager N which manages the IP 
addresses of your computers. 
By default, your Hercules access point's DHCP function is disabled, since it is your modem-router which is 
responsible for assigning these addresses (when equipped with this function).  However, you can select to 
assign the IP addresses from your Hercules access point.
