Description
RTS/CTS Threshold
Determines the packet size of a transmission and, through the use of an AP, helps
control traffic flow. The range is 0-2347 bytes.
Beacon Interval
Beacons are the packets sending by Access point to synchronize the wireless
network. The beacon interval is the time interval between beacons sending by this
unit in AP or AP+WDS operation. The default and recommended beacon interval is
100 milliseconds.
DTIM (Delivery Traffic
Indication Map)
This is the Delivery Traffic Indication Map. It is used to alert the clients that
multicast and broadcast packets buffered at the AP will be transmitted immediately
after the transmission of this beacon frame. You can change the value from 1 to
255. The AP will check the buffered data according to this value. For example,
selecting “1” means to check the buffered data at every beacon.
Fragment Size
A large data frame is fragmented into several fragments each of size equal to
fragment threshold. By tuning the fragment threshold value, we can get varying
fragment sizes.
