CTS Mode-	CTS (Clear To Send) is a function used to minimize collisions
	among wireless devices on a wireless local area network (LAN).
	CTS will make sure the wireless network is clear before a wire-
	less client attempts to send wireless data. Enabling CTS will
	add overhead and may lower wireless throughput.
	None-	CTS is typically used in a pure 802.11g environment.
		If CTS is set to “None” in a mixed mode environment
		populated by 802.11b clients, wireless collisions may
		occur frequently.
	Always- CTS will always be used to make sure the wireless
		LAN is clear before sending data.
	Auto-	CTS will monitor the wireless network and automati-
		cally decide whether to implement CTS based on
		the amount of traffic and collisions that occurs on
		the wireless network.

802.11g only mode- Select this mode to restrict your network to only those devices that employ the 802.11g standard. Enabling this mode will en- sure that you maintain the highest connectivity rate, unhampered by any connection to an 802.11b device.
