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.
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. Enable RTS/CTS by setting a specific packet size threshold. The
default value (2347) is recommended.
Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346)
Fragmentation is used to divide 802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments)
that are sent separately to the destination. Enable fragmentation by setting 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.
Preamble Mode
This parameter is used to control whether frames will transmit with the Long
or Short Preamble. The default value is Long Tx Preamble.
