Performance
Transmit Power:
Beacon Interval:
RTS Threshold:
Fragmentation:
DTIM Interval:
Normally the wireless transmitter operates at 100% power. In some circumstances, however, there might be a need to isolate specific frequencies to a smaller area. By reducing the power of the radio, you can prevent transmissions from reaching beyond your corporate/home office or designated wireless area.
Beacons are packets sent by a wireless router to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Interval value between 20 and 1000 milliseconds. The default value is 100 milliseconds.
This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value are recommended.
This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance.
A DTIM is a countdown for informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255.
