Beacon Period The time interval between beacon frame transmissions. Beacons contain rate and
capability information. Beacons received by stations can be used to identify the
access points in the area.
RTS Threshold RTS/CTS handshaking will be performed for any data or management MPDU
containing a number of bytes greater than the threshold. If this value is larger than
the MSDU size (typically set by the fragmentation threshold), no handshaking will
be performed. A value of zero will enable handshaking for all MPDUs.
Fragmented Threshold Any MSDU or MMPDU larger than this value will be fragmented into an MPDU
of the specified size.
DTIM Interval The number of Beacon intervals between DTIM transmissions. Multicast and
broadcast frames are delivered after every DTIM
Supported Rates
802.11b Rates (Mbps)
802.11g Rates (Mbps)

The rates are also broadcast within the connection protocol as the rates supported
by the Router.
