RIFS Transmission (11ng). Reduced interframe space transmission. RIFS transmissions are shorter than other interframe spaces, and if enabled allow transmission of successive frames at different transmit powers. The default is Disable.

DTIM Interval. The delivery traffic indication message specifies the data beacon rate between 1 and 255. The default is 3.

Preamble Type (11b/bg only). A long transmit preamble might provide a more reliable connection or a slightly longer range. A short transmit preamble gives better performance. The Auto settings automatically handles both long and short preambles. The default is Auto.

802.11d. Enable this option to include support for additional regulatory domains that are not in the current standard.

Max Wireless Clients. The number of wireless clients that can associate with the AP at one time. The default is 20.

Advanced QoS Settings

Wireless Multimedia Extension (WME) or Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WME allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the type of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WME to function correctly, wireless clients also need to support WME.

For most networks, the default QoS queue parameter settings work well. Quality of Service provides you with the ability to specify parameters on multiple queues for increased throughput and better performance of differentiated wireless traffic, like Voice-over-IP (VoIP), other types of audio, video, and streaming media, as well as traditional IP data.
