3.2.4 Advanced Settings

You can set advanced wireless LAN parameters of this router. The parameters include Authentication Type, Fragment Threshold, RTS Threshold, Beacon Interval, Preamble Type, etc. It is suggested not to change these parameters unless you know what effect the changes will have on this router.

Parameters

Default

Description

Fragment Threshold

 

"Fragment Threshold" specifies the maximum

 

 

size of packet during the fragmentation of data

 

 

to be transmitted. If you set this value too low, it

 

 

will result in bad performance.

RTS Threshold

 

When the packet size is smaller than the RTS

 

 

threshold, the wireless router will not use the

 

 

RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet.

Beacon Interval

 

The interval of time that this wireless router

 

 

broadcast a beacon. Beacon is used to

 

 

synchronize the wireless network.
