DTIM Period: Adjusts the delivery traffic indication method period.
RTS Threshold: Adjusts the size of RTS data packets. Lower values reduce throughput, but allow the system to
recover quicker from interference/collisions. Higher values provide the fastest throughput.
Fragment Threshold: The default and recommended setting is at 2346, meaning the Range Extender will never
fragment any frames that it sends to wireless users.
Multicast Rate: Adjust the transfer rate for multicast packets or choose the “auto” setting.
Beacon Interval: Indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Range
Extender to synch the wireless network.
Station Idle Timeout: This feature will disconnect connected devices that are no longer active based on a set
interval of time.
WLAN Proxy for Power Saving: The Range Extender will send an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) packet
instead of STA packets to map IP addresses so that network devices do not need to awake from power saving
mode to reply to the ARP packages from the Range Extender. This feature only works when the Range
Extender’s DHCP server is enabled.
WLAN Integrity: This feature will ping the target IP/URL every 60 seconds to verify that a connection is active.
If the ping fails five times consecutively, all of the SSIDs for the 2.4GHz radio will all be disabled. Thereafter, the
Range Extender will continue to ping the target IP every 60 seconds and will automatically turn on all SSIDs
once the ping is successful. By default the Target IP will be the DNS or Gateway IP of the active Internet
connection.
