Hop Dwell Period
This parameter specifies how long the system will stay on one
frequency before hopping to the next frequency in the pattern.
The maximum duration is set by the regulatory body for your
country. The limit for the United States is 400 ms (approximately
390 Kµsec). The default for Infrastructure Mode systems is
200 ms (approximately 200 Kµsec). Refer to the IEEE 802.11
Standard for more information on the hopping mechanism.
Beacon Period
This parameter specifies the duration between beacon packets
that are used by IEEE 802.11 systems to synchronize the “hops”
(change to another frequency). The beacon packet contains
timing information and hop pattern information that is broadcast
over the airwaves. Any station that can hear the beacon packet
can then synchronize their internal timer so that it can hop at the
correct time. The default beacon period is one-half of the dwell
period so two beacons are transmitted per hop dwell period
(default is 100 Kµsec). Refer to the IEEE 802.11 Standard for
more information on the hopping mechanism.
Wake Duration
This parameter specifies the amount of time per Hop Dwell
Period that the adapter stays awake listening for data packets.
This is only used in Power Save Mode.
