Description
Fragment Threshold
To identify the maxima length of packet, the over length packet will
be fragmentized. The allowed range is 256-2346, and default length
is 2346.
RTS Threshold
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The range is
0~2347. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor
modifications are recommended. If a network packet is smaller than
the present RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be
enabled. The router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a
particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data
frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a
Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin
transmission. Fill the range from 0 to 2347 into this blank.
Beacon Interval
Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a
wireless network. Specify a beacon interval value. The allowed
setting range is 20-1024 ms..
Preamble Type
PLCP is Physical layer convergence protocol and PPDU is PLCP
protocol data unit during transmission, the PSDU shall be appended
to a PLCP preamble and header to create the PPDU. It has 2
options: Long Preamble and Short Preamble.
IAPP
Inter-Access Point Protocol is a recommendation that describes an
optional extension to IEEE 802.11 that provides wireless
access-point communications among multivendor systems.
Protection
Please select to enable wireless protection or not.
Aggregation
Enable this function will combine several packets to one and transmit
it. It can reduce the problem when mass packets are transmitting.
Short GI
Users can get better wireless transmission efficiency when they
enable this function.
RF Output Power
Users can adjust RF output power to get the best wireless network
environment. Users can choose from 100%, 70%, 50%, 35%, and
15%.

WDS Settings
When selected in the Basic Settings page and enabled here, Wireless Distribution System
(WDS) enables the router to be used as a wireless bridge. Two Wireless-N Routers in bridge
mode can communicate with each other through their wireless interfaces. To accomplish this,
all wireless routers should be set to the same channel and the MAC address of other AP /
Routers should be entered in the table.
The WDS explanation is as the following picture.
