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 wire- | |
| less client attempts to send wireless data. Enabling CTS will | |
| add overhead and may lower wireless throughput. | |
| 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 |
|
| occur frequently. |
| Always- CTS will always be used to make sure the wireless | |
|
| LAN is clear before sending data. |
| Auto- | CTS will monitor the wireless network and automati- |
|
| cally decide whether to implement CTS based on |
|
| the amount of traffic and collisions that occurs on |
|
| the wireless network. |
802.11g only mode- Select this mode to restrict your network to only those devices that employ the 802.11g standard. Enabling this mode will en- sure that you maintain the highest connectivity rate, unhampered by any connection to an 802.11b device.
