Chapter 7 WiFi WAN

Windows Networking (NetBIOS over TCP/IP): NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP

or UDP broadcast packets that enable a computer to connect to and communicate with a LAN. For

some dial-up services such as PPPoE or PPTP, NetBIOS packets cause unwanted calls. However it

may sometimes be necessary to allow NetBIOS packets to pass through to the WAN in order to find a

computer on the WAN.

Allow between LAN

and WAN

Select this check box to forward NetBIOS packets from the LAN to the WAN

and from the WAN to the LAN. If your firewall is enabled with the default policy

set to block WAN to LAN traffic, you also need to enable the default WAN to

LAN firewall rule that forwards NetBIOS traffic.
Clear this check box to block all NetBIOS packets going from the LAN to the

WAN and from the WAN to the LAN.

Advanced Setup

RTS/CTS Threshold

Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS (Request

To Send)/CTS (Clear To Send) handshake.
If the RTS/CTS value is greater than the Fragmentation Threshold value,

then the RTS/CTS handshake will never occur as data frames will be

fragmented before they reach RTS/CTS size.
Enter a value between 0 and 2432.

Fragmentation

Threshold

It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between

256 and 2432.
