SECTION 3	CONFIGURATION
Field	Description
RTS Threshold	The packet size at which an access point issues
	a request to send (RTS). The range is 0 to 2347
	bytes.
	If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only
	minor modifications are recommended. If
	needed, enter a new value.
	The default is 2347.
Fragmentation	The size at which packets are fragmented and
Threshold	transmitted a piece at a time instead of all at
	once. The setting must be within the range of
	256 to 2346 bytes.
	If needed, enter a new value.
	The default is 2346.
Beacon Period	The Beacon Period and Delivery Traffic
	Indicator Maps (DTIM) work together to keep
	power management in check. For example, if a
	client does not receive a beacon within a certain
	time period, it goes to sleep. This is why
	lowering the beacon period and DTIM period
	settings may keep sleepy clients awake.
	However, DTIM and Beacon settings do use
	additional bandwidth. So, setting them too low
	can have an effect on WI-FI performance. On
	the other hand, if no wireless clients use power
	management, then increasing the DTIM and
	Beacon settings may improve overall
	throughput. Usually the default settings are fine.
	A beacon is a packet broadcast by the AP to
	keep the network synchronized. You are able to
	set the Beacon Period value from 1 to 65535 in
	Time Units (TU).
	If needed, enter a new value and click Apply to
	save the setting.
	The default is 100.
