Config - Advanced

Click

Advanced link on Config-Basic

page to show this tab. This tab allows

you to set up additional parameters

for the wireless card. We recommend

using 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 (2000) is recommended for

normal use.
