ted Wireless Band. If you experience problems at high data rates, then we recom-
mend that you select a lower data rate..

Wireless LAN clients when they perform a network search. Default value is DO-
VADO.

When disabled, other Wireless LAN clients will not find the router when they
perform a network search.
Fragment length

you experience a high packet error rate you can decrease this value in small steps
to reduce this problem. Setting the fragment length too low may result in poor
performance.The default value is 2346.
