A-MPDU/A-MSDU Aggregation: The data rate of your AP except wireless client mode could be enhanced greatly with this option
enabled; however, if your wireless clients don’t support A-MPDU/A-MSDU aggregation, we do not recommend enabling it.
Short GI: Under 802.11n mode, enables better data rate if there is no negative compatibility issue.
IGMP Snooping: IGMP snooping is the process of listening to IGMP network traffic. By enabling IGMP snooping, the AP will listen
to IGMP membership reports and queries, and leave messages to identify the ports that are members of multicast groups.
Multicast traffic will only be forwarded to ports identified as members of the specific multicast group.
RIFS: RIFS (Reduced Interframe Spacing) reduces overhead and thereby increases network efficiency.
HT Protect: Enable HT (High Throughput) protect to ensure HT transmission with MAC mechanism. Under 802.11n mode, wireless
client can be divided into HT STA and Non-HT STA, among which the one with HT protect enabled gets higher throughput.
Preamble Type: It defines some details on the 802.11 physical layer. “Long” and “Auto” are available.
RTS Threshold: The Wireless Ethernet Extender sends RTS (Request to Send) frames to certain receiving stations and negotiates
the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, that STA responds with a CTS (Clear to Send) frame to acknowledge the
right to start transmission. The setting range is 0 to 2346 bytes. Setting it too low may result in poor network performance. Leave
We recommend using the default setting, 2346.
Fragmentation Threshold: Specify the maximum size in byte for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets. Setting
it too low may result in poor network performance. Leave it at its default of 2346 is recommended.
Beacon Interval: Specify the frequency interval to broadcast packets. Enter a value between 20 and 1024.
DTIM Interval: DTIM, which stands for Delivery Traffic Indication Message, is contained in the data packets. It is for enhancing the
wireless transmission efficiency. The default is set to 1. Enter a value between 1 and 255.
Channel Protection Mode: This is to avoid conflict with other wireless network and boost the ability of your device to catch all
802.11g transmissions. However, it may decrease wireless network performance. Compared to CTS-Self; the transmission amount
of CTS-RTS is much lower.
