Fragment
Threshold
Fragmentation mechanism is used for improving the efficiency when high
traffic flows along in the wireless network. If the 802.11g MIMO Wireless
Router often transmit large files in wireless network, you can enter new
Fragment Threshold value to split the packet. The value can be set from
256 to 2346. The default value is 2346.
RTS Threshold
RTS Threshold is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node”
problem. If the “Hidden Node” problem is an issue, please specify the
packet size. The RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds
the value you set.
Warning: Enabling RTS Threshold will cause redundant network overhead
that could negatively affect the throughput performance instead of providing
a remedy.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should you
encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications of this value are
recommended.
Beacon Interval
Beacon Interval is the amount of time between beacon transmissions.
Before a station enters power save mode, the station needs the beacon
interval to know when to wake up to receive the beacon. Range 20-1024 ms,
default is 100.
Preamble Type
A preamble is a signal used in wireless environment to synchronize the
transmitting timing including Synchronization and Start frame delimiter.
You can select Long or Short for the preamble type.
