Section 3 - Configuration
Advanced Wireless Settings
Transmit Power: Set the transmit power of the antennas.
Beacon Period: Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value. 100 is the default setting and is recommended.
RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2432. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made.
Fragmentation The fragmentation threshold, which is specified Threshold: in bytes, determines whether packets will be
fragmented. Packets exceeding the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting.
DTIM Interval: (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) 3 is
the default setting. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
WLAN Partition: This enables 802.11d operation. 802.11d is a wireless specification developed to allow implementation of wireless networks in countries that cannot use the 802.11 standard. This feature should only be enabled if you are in a country that requires it.
WMM Enable: WMM is QoS for your wireless network. This will improve the quality of video and voice applications for your wireless clients.
Short GI: Check this box to reduce the guard interval time therefore increasing the data capacity. However, it’s less reliable and may create higher data loss.
