4. Click Next. This displays the “Wireless Options Configuration” window.
5. Optionally, configure the following items:
• Data Transfer Rate If a particular wireless client is unable to auto-negotiate a
connection to the Gateway, the data transfer rate may be set to a specific data rate
such as 11 Mbps for 802.11b wireless clients.
• RTS/CTS Threshold A group of wireless clients may experience difficulty communi-
cating with the Gateway without interrupting each other’s communications. If this
occurs, the RTS/CTS threshold may be set to a higher number to allow them each a
longer period in which to communicate with the Gateway before the priority is
switched to another wireless client wishing to transmit data.
• Fragmentation Threshold The fragmentation threshold may be lowered to
improve reliability in an excessively “noisy” wireless environment if changing channels
does not provide significant enough improvement.
If you wish to reset the options in the “Wireless Options Configuration” window, click
Restore Default Values. The system responds by restoring all the advanced features on
this page.
6. Click Next. This displays the “Wireless Wizard” finish window.
