times an unfragmented packet will
be retried before the packet is
dropped and a transmit error is
reported to driver (default is 16).
SHORTRETRYLIMIT 0 – 255 Optional – specifies the number of
times that a fragmented packet will
be retried to gain access before a
packet is dropped and a transmit
error is reported to the driver
(default is 16).

RXMSDULIFETIME 0 – 0xFFFF Optional – specifies the maximum
time for receiving a fragmented
packet (default is 10,000 K
µ sec
[10 seconds]).
TXPOWERLEVEL 0 – 100 Optional – selects the next highest
programmed power level for trans-
