Beacon Interval Keeps power management in check. For
example, if a client does not receive a
beacon within a certain time period, it goes
to sleep. You can set the Beacon Interval
value from 25 to 500, but selecting a value
that is too low or too high value is not
recommended. The default is 100.
RTS Threshold Minimizes collisions among hidden stations.
You can set the RTS Threshold value from 1
to 2346 bytes. The default is 2312.
Fragmentation Threshold Determines the size of the packet
transmitted in fragments. We recommend
you fragment the packet for poor-quality
links. You can set the Fragmentation
Threshold value from 256 to 2346 bytes. The
default is 2312.
