Description
Sets how the SBG900 communicates with wireless clients (stations):
• 11b/11g Standard — Enables all IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g clients to work with the
SBG900. We recommend using this default setting in most cases because it is more flexible.
• 11g Enhanced — Choose this option only if all IEEE 802.11g clients on the network support
the performance-enhancing features of the IEEE 11g Enhanced mode. It is not supported by
all IEEE 802.11g stations.
Sets the transmit power on the
mW. The default is 32 mW. Transmit power control is an optional IEEE 802.11b feature.
The Request To Send Threshold sets the packet size at which the access point issues an
before sending the packet. A low RTS can help when many clients are associated with the
SBG900 or when the clients are far apart and can detect the
can be 0 to 2347 bytes. The default is 2347.
Sets the size at which packets are fragmented (sent as several packets instead of as one
packet). A low Fragmentation Threshold can help when communication is poor or when there
is a significant interference. It can be 256 to 2346 bytes. The default is 2346.
Sets the time between beacon frames sent by the SBG900 for wireless network
synchronization. It can be from 1 to 999 ms. The default is 100 ms.
The delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) period is the number of Beacon Periods that
elapse before a wireless client operating in power save mode "listens" for buffered broadcast
or multicast messages from the SBG900. It can be from 1 to 99999. The default is 3.
