￿Transmit Power: You may have the different application distance of the device by selecting a value from the drop-down list. This feature can be helpful in restricting the coverage area of the wireless network.

￿Fragment: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to improve performance on noisy networks.

￿RTS Threshold: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from degrading the performance.

￿Protection Mode: If your wireless network is using both 802.11b and 802.g devices then it is recommended to enable this feature so that the 802.11b devices will not degrade the performance of 802.11g devices.
