Wireless Advanced

Choose menu "Advanced→Wireless→Wireless Advanced", you can configure the advanced
settings of your wireless network.

Transmit Power - Here you can specify the transmit power of router. You can select High,
Middle or Low which you would like. High is the default setting and is recommended.

Beacon Interval - Enter a value between 40-1000 milliseconds for Beacon Interval here.
The beacons are the packets sent by the router to synchronize a wireless network.
Beacon Interval value determines the time interval of the beacons. The default value is
100.

RTS Threshold - Here you can specify the RTS (Request to Send) Threshold. If the
packet is larger than the specified RTS Threshold size, the router will send RTS frames to
a particular receiving station and negotiate the sending of a data frame. The default value
is 2346.

Fragmentation Threshold - This value is the maximum size determining whether
packets will be fragmented. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in
poor network performance because of excessive packets. 2346 is the default setting and
is recommended.

DTIM Interval - This value determines the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication
Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window
for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the router has buffered
broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a
DTIM Interval value. You can specify the value between 1-255 Beacon Intervals. The
default value is 1, which indicates the DTIM Interval is the same as Beacon Interval.

Enable WMM - WMM function can guarantee the packets with high-priority messages
being transmitted preferentially. It is strongly recommended.

Enable Short GI - This function is recommended for it will increase the data capacity by
reducing the guard interval time
