Channel/Frequency Displays the channel number and

corresponding operating frequency. The AirRouter HP

uses the channel/radio frequency specified to transmit

and receive data. Valid channel/frequency range will vary

depending on local country regulations.

Channel Width This is the spectral width of the radio

channel used by the AirRouter HP. 5, 10, 20 and 40 MHz

channel spectrum widths are supported. In Station (or

Station WDS) 20/40 MHz is the value by default.

ACK/Distance Displays the current timeout value for ACK

frames. ACK Timeout can be set manually or self-adjusted

automatically. The ACK Timeout (Acknowledgement frame

Timeout) specifies how long the AirRouter HP should

wait for an acknowledgement from a partner device

confirming packet reception before concluding there

must have been an error and resending the packet.

TX/RX Chains Displays the number of independent

spatial data streams the AirRouter HP is transmitting/

receiving simultaneously within one spectral channel

of bandwidth. This ability is specific for 802.11n devices

which rely on multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)

technology. Multiple chains increase data transfer

performance significantly. The number of chains Ubiquiti

device uses is hardware specific. Every TX/RX chain

requires a separate antenna.

WLAN MAC Displays the MAC address of the AirRouter

HP as seen on the wireless network.

LAN MAC Displays the MAC address of the AirRouter HP

as seen on the LAN (Local Area Network).

WAN MAC Displays the MAC address of the AirRouter HP

as seen on the WAN interface. This is the AirRouter HP’s

MAC address that is seen over the Internet.

WAN/LAN Indicates the current status of the WAN and

LAN Ethernet port connections. This can indicate that a

cable is not plugged into a device and there is no active

Ethernet connection.

AP MAC Displays the MAC address of the AirRouter HP

in Access Point or Access Point WDS mode. In Station or

Stations WDS mode, this displays the MAC address of the

Access Point the AirRouter HP is associated with.

Connections Displays the number of wireless devices

connected to the AirRouter HP when the device is

operating in Access Point or Access Point WDS mode. This

value is not displayed while operating in Station or Station

WDS mode.

Noise Floor Displays the current value of the noise level

in dBm. Noise Floor is taken into account while evaluating

the signal quality (Signal-to-Noise Ratio SNR, RSSI).

Transmit CCQ This is an index of which evaluates the

wireless Client Connection Quality. The level is based on

a percentage value where 100% corresponds to a perfect

link state.

Airmax Indicates the AirMax status (Ubiquiti’s proprietary

TDMA polling technology) when operating in Access

Point or Access Point WDS mode. If AirMax is enabled, the

AirRouter HP will only accept AirMax clients. (Disable

AirMax for legacy 802.11/jointfilesconvert/218032/bgn device compatibility). AirMax

also features advanced QoS Autodetection settings.

Airmax Quality This displays the AirMax Connection

Quality. The level is based on a percentage value where

100% corresponds to a perfect link state.

Airmax Capacity This is an index of maximum data

rate the link is operating at. A Lower Capacity number

indicates a unit that is bogging the system down.

Monitor

There are various monitoring tools accessible via the links

on the Main tab. The default selection is Throughput which

is displayed as soon as you open the Main tab.

Throughput

Shows a visual representation of the current data traffic

on the LAN and WLAN in both graphical and numerical

form. The chart scale and throughput dimension (Bps,

Kbps, Mbps) changes dynamically according to the mean

throughput value. The statistics are updated automatically.

Throughput statistics can be updated manually using the

Refresh button.

Stations

This selection lists the stations which are connected to

the AirRouter HP while operating in Access Point or Access

Point WDS mode.

The following statistics for each station are displayed in

the station statistics window:

Station MAC MAC address of the associated station. This

is a clickable link that will display additional station info.

Device Name Displays the client’s host name (if defined).

Signal/Noise, dBm Signal value represents the last

received wireless signal level, and Noise displays the value

of the noise level.

Tx/Rx, Mbps Tx value represents the data rates, in Mbps,

of the last transmitted packets, and Rx value represents

the data rates, in Mbps, of the last received packets.
