Fragment Threshold

A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255.

Fragment Threshold

This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance.

RTS Threshold

This setting should remain at its default value of 2347. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to the value are recommended.

TX Power

Normally the wireless transmitter operates at 100% power. In some circumstances, however, there might be a need to isolate specific frequencies to a smaller area. By reducing the power of the radio, you can prevent transmissions from reaching beyond your corporate/home office or designated wireless area.

Short Preamble

Use to synchronize communication timing between devices on a network. Disable by default.

Short Slot

Enable or disable short slot. Default is enabled.

Tx Burst

Enable or disable Tx burst. Default is enabled.

Pkt_Aggregate

Enable or disable Pkt aggregate. Default is enabled.

WMM Capable

Enabling WMM can help control latency and jitter when transmitting multimedia content over a wireless connection.

APSD Capable

Enable or disable APSD capable. Default is enabled.
