Setting Explanations:

BG Protection Mode: Determines whether the

legacy mode protection mechanisms are enabled

or not. The default mode is Auto.

Basic Data Rates: In terms of different

requirements, you can select one of the suitable

Basic Data Rates from the drop-down menu. The

default value is (1-2-5.5-11Mbps). It is

recommended not to modify the default value.

Beacon Interval: The frequency interval (in

milliseconds) of the beacon, which is a packet

broadcast by the AP to synchronize a wireless

network. The default value is 100 ms. In cases of

poor reception, lowering the value may improve

connectivity.

Fragment

Threshold:

The

fragmentation

threshold defines the maximum transmission

packet size in bytes. If the data is larger than the

threshold setting, it will be split into multiple

packets. The default size is 2346 bytes and it is

best to leave it at the default. If you experience a

high packet error rate, you may slightly increase

this value. Only minor modifications of this value

are recommended. A value too low will result in

poor network performance.
