∙Fragment Threshold: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to improve performance on noisy networks. Specify a value between 256 and 2346. The default value is 2346.

∙RTS Threshold: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from degrading the performance. Specify a value between 0 and 2347. The default value is 2347.

∙Data rate: You may select a data rate from the drop-down list, however, it is recommended to select auto. This is also known as auto-fallback.
