802.11b/g
The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the
unique name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the
unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs. The
default SSID of the router is "default".
The interval of time that this wireless router broadcast a
beacon. Beacon is used to synchronize the wireless
network. The range for the beacon period is between 20
and 1000 with a typical value of 100 (milliseconds).
When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold,
the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism
to send this packet. The range is from 1500 to 2347.
Fragment Threshold specifies the maximum size of
packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted.
If you set this value too low, it will result in bad
performance. Enter a value from 256 to 2346.
Determines the interval the Access Point will send its
broadcast traffic. The range is from 1 to 255 and the
default value is 3 beacons.
