DTIM: This value indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM).
When the Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it
sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Clients can hear the beacons and awaken to
receive the broadcast and multicast messages. A DTIM interval is a count of the number of
beacon frames. For example: a DTIM interval equal to one means that the multicast frames
are sent after each beacon frame. Generally speaking, as the access point transmits a multicast
frame, it is recommended to set value as 1.
Space In Meter: This space in meter is used for extending ACK time-out destination. The
setting range is 0-36000.
802.11g (2.4GHz):
Enable Super-G Mode: Enable Super-G may enhance the wireless throughput. The default
setting is Disable.
RTS Threshold: RTS Threshold is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node”
problem. If you have more collisions, it is recommended to enable RTS. If you have fewer
collisions, it is not necessary to enable RTS. Forcing the access point to implement the
RTS/CTS handshake will significantly increase the overhead and reduce throughput. If the
size of the packet transmitted is larger than the value you set, the RTS should be enabled.
Frag Threshold: Fragmentation mechanism is used for improving the efficiency when there
is high traffic within the wireless network. If you transmit large files in a wireless network,
you can enable the Fragmentation Threshold and specify the packet size. This specifies the
maximum size a data packet will be before splitting and creating a new packet. The setting
range is 256-2346. For example: If you set value as 256, it means the packet will be
fragmented into “256” bytes while transmitting.
