SYSTEM CONFIGURATION

RTS Length (256-2346): Set the RTS (Request to Send) frame length.

You may configure the access point to initiate an RTS frame sequence always, never, or only on frames longer than a specified length. If the packet size is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will NOT be enabled

The access point sends request to send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station to negotiate the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the station send a CTS (Clear to Send) frame to acknowledge the right for the sending station to send data frames. The access point contending for the medium may not be aware of each other. The RTS/CTS mechanism can solve this “Hidden Node Problem.” (Default: 2346)

TCP / IP Settings

Set the TCP/IP configuration for accessing the Internet.

With DHCP Client “Enable,” the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway can be dynamically assigned to the Access Point
