Fragmentation Threshold This setting specifies the largest allowable size, in bytes, for a
packet. If the packet is larger than this, it is fragmented into multiple packet before it is
transmitted. To prevent poor network performance, it’s recommended to keep this value as
large as possible (up to 2346).
Wi-Fi Power Save Mode If this field is set to “On,” the Wi-Fi component of the Overdrive Pro

the Wi-Fi connection and stops responding, set this field to “Off.”
Wi-Fi Age Out Time This is the amount of time of inactivity (no traffic), after which the
Overdrive Pro 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot drops the connection to a device.
