B/G Protection
Mode
Default:
Auto
. You can select the other options including
On
and
Off
. The B/G
protection technology is CTS-To-Self. It will try to reserve the throughput for
11g clients from 11b clients connecting to the device as AP mode.
Beacon Interval
Beacons are the packets sending by Access point to synchronize the wireless
network. The beacon interval is the time interval between beacons sending by
this unit in AP or AP+WDS operation. The default and recommended beacon
interval is 100 milliseconds.
Data Beacon
Rate(DTM)
This is the Delivery Traffic Indication Map. It is used to alert the clients that
multicast and broadcast packets buffered at the AP will be transmitted
immediately after the transmission of this beacon frame. You can change the
value from 1 to 255. The AP will check the buffered data according to this value.
For example, selecting “1” means to check the buffered data at every beacon.
Fragment
Threshold
The fragmentation threshold determines the size at which packets are
fragmented (sent as several pieces instead of as one block). Use a low setting in
areas where communication is poor or where there is a great deal of radio
interference. This function will help you to improve the network performance.
