RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds the value you set..
The default value is 2347.
Warning: Enabling RTS Threshold will cause redundant network overhead
that could negatively affect the throughput performance instead of providing
a remedy.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should you encounter
inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications of this value are recommended.
Beacon Interval Beacon Interval is the amount of time between beacon transmissions. Before
a station enters power save mode, the station needs the beacon interval to
know when to wake up to receive the beacon (and learn whether there are
buffered frames at the access point).
Data Rate By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible rate for
transmission. Select the basic rates to be used among the following options:
Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 11or 54 Mbps. For most networks the default setting is Auto
which is the best choice. When Auto is enabled the transmission rate will
select the optimal rate. If obstacles or interference are present, the system will
automatically fall back to a lower rate.
Preamble Type A preamble is a signal used in wireless environment to synchronize the
transmitting timing including Synchronization and Start frame delimiter. In a
"noisy" network environment, the Preamble Type should be set to Long
Preamble. The Short Preamble is intended for applications where minimum
overhead and maximum performance is desired. If in a "noisy" network
environment, the performance will be decreased.
Broadcast SSID Select enabled to allow all the wireless stations to detect the SSID of this
Access Point.
IAPP IAPP (Inter Access Point Protocol) is designed for the enforcement of unique
association throughout a ESS (Extended Service Set) and a secure exchange
of station’s security context between current access point (AP) and new AP
during handoff period.
802.11g Protection The 802.11g standard includes a protection mechanism to ensure mixed 802.11b and
802.11g operation. If there is no such kind of mechanism exists, the two kinds of
standards may mutually interfere and decrease network’s performance.
