Parameter Description 

RTS Threshold 

Minimum packet size required for an RTS (Request To Send). For

packets smaller than this threshold, an RTS is not sent and the 

packet is transmitted directly to the wireless network. Select a 

setting within a range of 0 to 2347 bytes. Minor change is 

recommended. 

 

 

Fragment Threshold 

The value defines the maximum size of packets; any packet size 

larger than the value will be fragmented. If you have decreased 

this value and experience high packet error rates, you can 

increase it again, but it will likely decrease overall network 

performance. Select a setting within a range of 256 to 2346 bytes. 

Minor change is recommended. 

 

 

Channel 

This setting is only available for Ad Hoc mode. Select the number 

of the radio channel used for the networking. The channel setting 

should be the same with the network you are connecting to. 

 
 

 

 

 

3.2.1.2 Authentication and Security 

Parameter Description 

Authentication Type 

This setting has to be consistent with the wireless networks that 

the adapter intends to connect. 

Open

 – No authentication is needed among the wireless network.
