7.3 Wireless Advanced Settings

Data Rate

Select Data Rate from the drop down list. Data rate will affect the

 

efficiency of the throughput. A lower data rate will allow for

 

transmissions to travel longer distances.

 

 

Transmit Power

Select Transmit Power to increase or decrease the transmit power.

 

Altering the transmit power will change the wireless coverage

 

area correspondingly; however, setting the Transmit Power to an

 

extreme level may cause issues for wireless connectivity.

 

 

RTS/CTS Threshold

Specify Threshold package size for RTC/CTS. Smaller thresholds

 

will cause RTS/CTS packets to be sent more often, consuming

 

more of the available bandwidth. In addition, if heavy traffic

 

occurs, the wireless network is more robust in the event of

 

interference or collisions.

Distance

Specify distance range between AP and Clients. Farther distances

 

may utilize lower connection speeds.

Short GI

Short GI is an improvement of 802.11n and 802.11a/g. It can

 

increase performance by 10% during the data transmission. For

 

example, if the 802.11a/g’s GI is 800μs, the short GI will be 400μs.
