Mode Setting:
Select the transmission rate for the network.
Choose 100%l,
Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a beacon interval value. Default (100) is recommended.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2,432. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value range between 256 and 2,432 are recommended.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2,346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase your fragmentation threshold within the value range of 256 to 2,346. Setting the fragmentation threshold too low may result in poor performance.
(Delivery Traffic Indication Message) Enter a value between 1 and 255 (default is 3) for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM.) A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
For utmost speed, select G Mode to include only 802.11g devices in your network. Select Mix Mode to include 802.11g and 802.11b devices in your network.
Preamble: Long Preamble is the default setting. (High traffic networks should use the shorter preamble type.) The preamble defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) used in communication between the access point and the wireless network adapters.
