3. Performance Parameters and Bandwidth Controller

This chapter gives instructions for editing the wireless radio protocol parameters to optimize radio performance and for changing the Bandwidth Controller. These procedures are the same for all the operational modes.

3.1 Link Performance Parameters and Features

The wireless radio performance parameters can be edited to optimize the radio performance. The radio protocol parameters are:

1.Fragment Length (between 256 and 2346)

2.RTS/CTS (between 256 and 2346)

3.RSSI Threshold (between -90 and -20)

4.Preamble Settings: Long, Short or Dynamic

5.Distance

6.Frame Bursting

7.Concatenation

8.Piggy Back

9.Radio Operating Mode

10.Throughput Optimizer

a) Shows current value

 

b) Changes to a value within its range

 

This setting determines the size at which packets are fragmented. If

 

the frame that the access point is transmitting is larger than the

Fragment Length

threshold, it will trigger the fragmentation function.

 

The use of fragmentation can increase the reliability of frame

 

transmissions. Because smaller frames are being sent, collisions are

 

much less likely to occur.
