|
|
RTS/CTS | Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS (Request To Send)/ |
Threshold | CTS (Clear To Send) handshake. |
| Enter a value between 0 and 2347. |
|
|
Fragmentation | The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed messages. |
Threshold | It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter an even number between |
| 256 and 2346. |
|
|
Beacon Interval | When a wirelessly networked device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon interval. |
| This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again. The interval tells |
| receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in |
| waking up to handle the beacon. This value can be set from 20 to 1024 ms. A high value |
| helps save current consumption of the access point. |
|
|
DTIM Period | Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is the time period after which broadcast and |
| multicast packets are transmitted to mobile clients in the Active Power Management |
| mode. A high DTIM value can cause clients to lose connectivity with the network. This |
| value can be set from 1 to 10. |
|
|
Preamble Type | A preamble affects the timing in your wireless network. There are two preamble modes: |
| long and short. If a device uses a different preamble mode than the |
| cannot communicate with the |

CTS Protection | When set to None, the |

Tx Power | This field controls the transmission power of the |
| with a notebook computer, select a lower transmission power level when you are close to |
| the AP in order to conserve battery power. |
