Tx Power: To lower the transmit power of the adapter to reduce the power used by the system,

select a lower percentage from the drop-down menu.

Note: A lower power level will result in lower signal strength and reduced coverage range.

RTS Threshold:

This is the minimum packet size required for an RTS (request to send). For packets smaller than this

threshold, an RTS is not sent and the packet is transmitted directly to the wireless network. Select a

setting within a range of 0 to 2347 bytes.

Note: A minor change is recommended.

Fragment Threshold:

This value defines the maximum size of packets; any packet size larger than the value will be

fragmented. If you’ve decreased this value and experience high packet-error rates, you can increase it

again, but it will likely decrease overall network performance. Select a setting within a range of 256 to

2346 bytes.

Note: A minor change is recommended.
