Section 3 - Configuration
Select the basic transfer rates based on the speed of
wireless adapters on your wireless network. It is strongly
recommended to keep this setting to Auto.
Set the transmit power of the antennas.
Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize
a wireless network. Specify a value. 100 is the default setting
and is recommended.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2432. If
inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification
should be made.
The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding
the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting.
(Delivery Traffic Indication Message) 3 is the default setting. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for
listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
Select Short or Long Preamble. The Preamble defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common
technique for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the wireless router and the roaming wireless
network adapters. Auto is the default setting. Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type.
CTS (Clear To Send) is a function used to minimize collisions among wireless devices on a wireless local area network
(LAN). CTS will make sure the wireless network is clear before a wireless client attempts to send wireless data. Enabling
CTS will add overhead and may lower wireless through put. None: CTS is typically used in a pure 802.11g environment. If
CTS is set to “None” in a mixed mode environment populated by 802.11b clients, wireless collisions may occur frequently.
Always: CTS will always be used to make sure the wireless LAN is clear before sending data. Auto: CTS will monitor the
wireless network and automatically decide whether to implement CTS based on the amount of traffic and collisions that
occurs on the wireless network.
WMM is QoS for your wireless network. Enable this option to improve the quality of video and voice applications for your
wireless clients.
