CONFIGURATION MANUAL
WIRELESS ACCESS POINT 802.11b/g
Fragmentation threshold (25-234)
Fragmentation is used to divide 802.11 frames into smaller packets, sent separately to the
destination. Indicate a packet size threshold to activate fragmentation. If there is an excessive
number of collisions on the WLAN network, try using other fragmentation values to improve
frame transmission reliability. The default value (2346) is the recommended value for normal
use.
RTS threshold (0-2347)
The RTS/CTS function (Request to Send/Clear to Send) is used to minimize collisions
between wireless stations. When the RTS/CTS function is activated, wireless devices can only
transmit after being authorized by the Access point (CTS). Indicate a packet size threshold to
activate the RTS/CTS function. The default value (2347) is the recommended value.
DTIM Interval (1-255) - (Delivery Traffic Indication Message)
is a radio message used to inform clients on standby that the system must be activated to
receive broadcast and multicast messages. Enter the time interval for the transmission of
DTIM messages for clients on standby status. The default value (3) is the recommended value.
Beacon interval (1-5535)
This field indicates the time interval in milliseconds needed to send general system broadcast
packets (beacons) in order to synchronize the wireless network. The default value (100
milliseconds) is the recommended value.
Activate frame bursts?
This field enables you to activate frame bursts to improve performance with wireless clients
that support this function.
Radio power – Radio power must lie between 1 and 84 but we recommend the default
value.
Activate WMM
Use this field to activate the WMM function to improve multimedia transmissions.
Activate WMM No-Acknowledgement
Use this field to activate the WMM No-Acknowledgement function.
