CTS Mode

CTS (Clear To Send) is a function used to minimize

 

collisions among wireless devices on a wireless local

 

area network (LAN). CTS will make sure the wireless

 

network is clear before a wireless client attempts to

 

send wireless data. Enabling CTS will add overhead

 

and may lower wireless throughput.

 

Auto - CTS will monitor the wireless network and

 

automatically decide whether to implement CTS based

 

on the amount of traffic and collisions that occurs on

 

the wireless network.

 

Always - CTS will always be used to make sure the

 

wireless LAN is clear before sending data.

 

None - CTS is typically used in a pure 802.11g

 

environment. If CTS is set to “None” in a mixed mode

 

environment populated by 802.11b clients, wireless

 

collisions may
