clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast
messages. When the AP has buffered broadcast or multicast
messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a
DTIM Interval value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to
receive the broadcast and multicast messages.
Fragmentation
Threshold
This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. The range
is 256-2346 bytes. It specifies the maximum size for a packet
before data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you
experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the
Fragmentation Threshold. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold
too low may result in poor network performance. Only minor
modifications of this value are recommended.
RTS Threshold
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. The range
is 0-2347 bytes. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow,
only minor modifications are recommended. If a network packet
is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS
mechanism will not be enabled. The AP 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.
Xmit Power
This value ranges from 1 - 100 percent, default value is 100
percent. A safe increase of up to 60 percent would be suitable
for most users. Higher power settings are not recommended for
users due to excess heat generated by the radio chipset, which
can affect the life of the AP.
