WIRELESS

Advanced

Fragment Threshold

Specifies the size of the packet per fragment. This function can reduce the chance of packet collision.

However when this value is set too low, there will be increased overheads resulting in poor performance.

 

 

 

RTS Threshold

When the packet size is smaller than the RTS Threshold, then the packet will be sent

without an RTS/CTS handshake which may result in an incorrect transmission.

 

 

 

Beacon Interval

The time interval that the device broadcasts a beacon. This beacon is

used to synchronize all wireless clients on the network.

 

 

 

DTIM Period

A Delivery Traffic Indication Message informs all wireless clients that

the access point will be sending Multi-casted data.

 

 

 

N Data Rate

You can limit the transfer rates between the device and wireless clients. Each

Modulation Coding Scheme (MCS) refers to a specific transfer speed.

 

 

 

Channel Bandwidth

Set whether each channel uses 20 or 40Mhz.

To achieve 11n speeds, 40Mhz channels must be used.

 

 

 

Preamble Type

A preamble is a message that helps access points synchronize with the client.

A Long Preamble is standard based so it increases compatibility.

 

A Short Preamble is non-standard, so it decreases compatibility but increases performance.

CTS Protection

When Enabled, the performance is slightly lower however the chances of packet collision is greatly reduced.

 

 

Tx Power

Set the power output of the wireless signal.
