12.5% and Lowest. Use this command to decrease the transmit power if more than one AP is
co-located using the same channel frequency.
Beacon Interval: This value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a
packet broadcast by the Access Point to keep the network synchronized. A beacon includes the
wireless LAN service area, the AP address, the Broadcast destination addresses, a time stamp,
Delivery Traffic Indicator Maps, and the Traffic Indicator Message (TIM).
RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2,346. Should you
encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are recommended.
Fragmentation Length: This specifies the maximum size a data packet will be before splitting
and creating a new packet and should remain at its default setting of 2,346. A smaller setting
means smaller packets, which will create more packets for each transmission. Only minor
modifications of this value are recommended.
DTIM Interval: This value indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message
(DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening
to broadcast and multicast messages. When the Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast
messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Access
Point Clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.
Preamble Type: The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for communication
between the Access Point and a roaming Network Card. (High network traffic areas should use
the shorter preamble type.) Select the appropriate preamble type and click the Apply button to
set it. All wireless points (nodes) on your network should use the same preamble type.
Click the Reboot button for changes to take effect. After you click Reboot button, the web
server will lose connectivity with the AP Web Server as the AP reboots.
