TERM | DESCRIPTION |
Fragmentation | A small fragmentation threshold is recommended for busy networks, while a |
Threshold | larger threshold provides faster performance if the network is not very busy. |

Roaming | If you have two or more NWAs (or other wireless access points) on your |
| wireless network, you can enable this option so that wireless devices can |
| change locations without having to log in again. This is useful for devices, |
| such as notebooks, that move around a lot. |

|
Antenna | An antenna couples Radio Frequency (RF) signals onto air. A transmitter |
| within a wireless device sends an RF signal to the antenna, which |
| propagates the signal through the air. The antenna also operates in reverse |
| by capturing RF signals from the air. |
| Positioning the antennas properly increases the range and coverage area of |
| a wireless LAN. |
