6.2.2 Fragmentation Threshold
A
Fragmentation Threshold
is the maximum data fragment size (between 256 and 2432 bytes) that
can be sent in the wireless network before the 1500WR Wireless Router will fragment the packet into
smaller data frames.
A large Fragmentation Threshold is recommended for networks not prone to interference while you
should set a smaller threshold for busy networks or networks that are prone to interference.
If the Fragmentation Threshold value is smaller than the RTS/CTS value (see previously) you set, then
the RTS (Request To Send)/CTS (Clear to Send) handshake will never occur as data frames will be
fragmented before they reach RTS/CTS size.
6.3 Configuring Wireless
If you are configuring the 1500WR Wireless Router from a computer connected to the wireless LAN
and you change the 1500WR Wireless Router’s ESSID or WEP settings, you will lose your wireless
connection when you press Apply to confirm.
You must then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the 1500WR Wireless Router’s
new settings.
