Data Beacon Rate (DTIM) Enter the amount of time, always a multiple
of the beacon period, to determine how often
the beacon contains a delivery traffic
indication message (DTIM).
The DTIM tells power-save client devices
that a packet is waiting for them.
If the beacon period is set at 100, its default
setting, and the data beacon rate is set at 2, its
default setting, then the access point sends a
beacon containing a DTIM every 200
kilomicrosecond.
