Protected Mode switch
As part of the 802.11g specification, Protected mode ensures proper
operation of 802.11g clients and access points when there is heavy
802.11b traffic in the operating environment. When Protected mode is
ON, 802.11g scans for other wireless network traffic before it transmits
data. Therefore, using this mode in environments with HEAVY 802.11b
traffic or interference achieves best performance results. If you are in an
environment with very little—or no—other wireless network traffic, your
best performance will be achieved with Protected mode OFF.
