User Manual

 

 

 

increase it again, but it will likely decrease overall network

 

performance. Select a setting within a range of 256 to 2346 bytes.

 

Minor change is recommended.

 

The default value is 2346. In some case, you may be able to

 

improve performance by adjusting this value.

 

 

RTS/CTS Threshold

RTS / CTS(Request To Send / Clear To Send) is the mechanism

 

used by the 802.11 wireless networking protocol to reduce frame

 

collisions introduced by the hidden terminal problem and exposed

 

node problem.

 

RTS / CTS packet size threshold is 0 ~ 2346. Typically, sending

 

RTS frames is turned off by default (threshold 2346). If the

 

packet size the node wants to transmit is larger than the threshold,

 

the RTS / CTS handshake gets triggered. If the packet size is

 

equal to or less than threshold the data frame gets sent

 

immediately

 

The default value is 2346. In some case, you may be able to

 

improve performance by adjusting this value.
