Beacons are packets sent by the DI-784 to synchronize a wire-
less network. Specify a value. 100 is the default setting and is
recommended.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. If incon-
sistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should
be made.
This value should also remain at its default setting of 2346. If you
experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase
your Fragmentation value within the range of 256-2346. Setting
the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance.

DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for
listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
