5.6 Wireless Advanced Settings

If you do not have experience with configuring advanced wireless settings, leave these options at their default settings. Otherwise, any changes you make can affect performance adversely.

5.6.1 Advanced Settings (Access Point)

Fragment Threshold

Specify the maximum packet size during transmission. If a large number of clients are

 

accessing the WLAN, specify a small value to avoid collisions.

 

 

RTS Threshold

RTS threshold is a trigger to engage the exchange of RTS and CTS messages between

 

the Access Point and client. The trigger is a type of “handshaking” approach that

 

provides an additional layer of control over the use of the shared medium by

 

indicating the amount of time a wireless device, attempting to send, will wait for a

 

recipient to acknowledge that it is ready. If the packet size is smaller than the RTS

 

threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send the

 

packet. To ensure communication, use the maximum value. Decreasing this value

 

causes the sending device to discard the current packet and move on to the next.

 

 

Beacon Interval

Specify the duration between beacon packets. Access Points broadcast Beacons or

 

Traffic Indication Messages (TIM) to synchronize WLANs. The default setting of 100

 

should be fine for most situations. In a "noisy" environment with much interference,

 

decreasing this value can improve network performance. In very remote locations

 

(with few wireless nodes), you can increase this value.

 

 

DTIM Period

Specify a value between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message
