Edit Parameters
B-13
RTS Retry Limit
This parameter controls the number of times the PC
Card will re-send the RTS packet if it does not receive a
CTS from the previously sent RTS packet. Setting this
to a large value will decrease the available bandwidth
whenever interference is encountered, but will make the
system more immune to interference and collisions.
Refer to the IEEE 802.11 Standard for more information
on the RTS/CTS mechanism.
Advanced (Ad Hoc/IBSS)
In Ad Hoc Mode, you can also modify the following
parameters:
• Channel
• Beacon Period
• Wake Duration
Channel
This parameter specifies the channel identifier the unit
will use if it must start its own network. For all other situ-
ations, the radio will scan for the proper frequency. See
Appendix C for channel identifier parameters.
