DTIM interval
A delivery traffic indication message (DTIM), also known as a beacon, is a
countdown informing wireless clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the gateway has broadcast or
multicast messages for its clients, it sends its next DTIM message with this
DTIM interval value. The clients hear the beacons and awaken as needed
to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.
Beacon
interval
The amount of time (in milliseconds) between beacon transmissions, each
of which identifies the presence of an access point. By default, wireless
clients passively scan all radio channels, listening for beacons coming from
access points. Before a client enters power-save mode, it needs the beacon
interval to determine when to wake up for the next beacon (and learn
whether the access point has any messages for it). User can enter any
value between 1 and 65535, but the recommended range is 1 - 1000.
XPress™
Technology
XPress™ Technology is a feature in which two of our devices can
communicate with each other at twice the normal rate.
54g+ is a technology that achieves higher throughput with frame-bursting. With
54g+ enabled, aggregate throughput (the sum of the individual throughput of
each network client) improves by up to 25% in 802.11g-only networks, and up
to 75% in mixed networks containing both 802.11g and 802.11b equipment.
