This section allows you to set up

additional parameters for the wireless

router function. We recommend that

you use the default values for all

items in this window.

Set AP Isolated - Selecting “Yes” to prevent wireless client from communicating

with each other.

Multicast Rate (Mbps) - This field allows you to specify the transmission rate.

Leave on “Auto” to maximize performance versus distance.

Basic Rate Set - This field indicates the basic rates that wireless clients must

support. Use “1 & 2 Mbps” only when backward compatibility is needed for some

older wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of 2Mbps.

Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) – Fragmentation is used to divide

802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to the

destination. Set a specific packet size threshold to enable fragmentation. 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.

RTS Threshold (0-2347) – The RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send)

function is used to minimize collisions among wireless stations. When

RTS/CTS is enabled, the router refrains from sending a data frame until another

RTS/CTS handshake is completed. Set a specific packet size threshold to enable

RTS/CTS. The default value (2347) is recommended.

DTIM Interval (1-255) – DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is a wireless

message used to inform clients in Power Saving Mode when the system should

wake up to receive broadcast and multicast messages. Type the time interval in

which the system will broadcast a DTIM for clients in Power Saving Mode. The

default value (1) is recommended

Beacon Interval (1-65535) This field indicates the time interval in milliseconds

that a system broadcast packet, or beacon, is sent to synchronize the wireless

network. The default value (100 milliseconds) is recommended.

Enable TX Bursting This field allows you to enable TX-bursting mode to

improve performance with wireless clients that also support TX-bursting.

Enable Packet Aggregation - This field allows you to enable Packet Aggregation.

Enable Greenfield - This field allows you to enable Greenfield.
