Basic Data Rates
The transfer rate of data packets of this
wireless router. The wireless router will use the
highest possible selected transmission rate to
transmit the data packets. Three selections:
“1-2 Mbps”, “Default (1-2-5.5-11 Mbps)”, and

Fragment Threshold
This value should remain at its default setting
of 2346. If you experience a high packet error

threshold too low may result in poor
performance.
RTS Threshold
