Throughput
Optimizer
The Throughput Optimizer is used to optimize the radio Link speed and
performance.
The Valid range is 0 to 10. The default value is 6.
Setting a higher value will cause the radio to attempt to establish at the highest
possible data rate in an aggressive way. A smaller "Throughput Optimizer"
value means a more stable link.
Note: The default value for the Throughput Optimizer is 6. Vary the Throughput
Optimizer settings to achieve a more stable link.
Frame Bursting
Short 802.11g packets can be unwrapped and rebundled into a larger parket to
reduce the impact of mandatory gaps between the packets. This
increases the speed of 802.11g based wireless networks. Frame
bursting is sometimes also called "packet bursting."
Piggy Back
Piggy back is a performance-boosting feature which increases the effective
transmission speed with no intervention.
According to the IEEE 802.11 standard specification, a single frame combining
a plurality of information can be transmitted. For example, the frame may carry
data+acknowledgement (ACK), data+poll, data+ACK+poll, or ACK+poll for
transmission.
Using the Piggy Back increases the communication efficiency depending on the
transfer medium or size of data being transferred.
Follow the steps below to change the performance parameters:
1. From the ’Radio Configuration’ page click on the ’Performance’ link.
2. Enter the ’Fragment Length’, ’RTS/CTS Length’ and RSSI Threshold in the appropriate boxes.
3. Select throughput from ‘Throughput Optimizer’.
4. Click on the ’Apply Changes’ button to effect the changes.
