• Advanced - The Advanced page is intended for experienced users to

set up additional parameters for the WLAN adapter. Default values are

recommended.

1. RTS Threshold (0-2347) - The Request to Send/Clear to Send

(RTS/CTS) feature is used to minimize collisions between wireless

stations. When RTS/CTS is enabled, the router refrains from sending a

data frame until another RTS/CTS handshake is completed. To enable

RTS/CTS, set a specific packet size threshold. The default value (2347)

is recommended.

2. Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) - Fragmentation is used to

divide 802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent

separately to the destination. To enable fragmentation, set a specific

packet size threshold. If there is an excessive number of collisions on

the WLAN, experiment with different fragmentation values to increase

the reliability of frame transmissions. The default value (2346) is

recommended for normal use.

3. Preamble Mode - Select the preamble mode as Auto (default), Long

or Short.
