Edit Parameters

•Data Retries: This parameter defines the number of times a packet will be re-sent if the initial transmission is unsuccessful. If the network protocol automatically re- tries itself, set this to a small value. A “bad” packet sta- tus will be sent up the protocol stack more quickly so the application can re-transmit the packet.

•Basic Data Rate: This parameter determines the data rate used to transfer all management frames by the cli- ent device when associated within a given Basic Ser- vice Set (BSS). When operating in Infrastructure Mode, this parameter should be set to correspond to the Access Point setting. When operating in Ad Hoc Mode, all stations should have the same setting.
