Beacon Interval:
Enter a value between 25 and 1000 in milliseconds to determine the
duration between which beacon packets are broadcast by the router to synchronize
the wireless network. The default is 100 milliseconds.
•
RTS Threshold:
Enter a value between 1 and 2347 to determine the packet size of
data transmission through the router. By default, the RTS (Request to Send) Threshold

Request to Send frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending
of a data frame, or else the packet will be sent immediately.

Enter a value between 1 and 255 to determine the interval of the
