Normally the wireless transmitter operates at 100% power. In
some circumstances, however, there might be a need to isolate
specific frequencies to a smaller area. By reducing the power of
the radio, you can prevent transmissions from reaching beyond
your corporate/home office or designated wireless area.
Beacons are packets sent by a wireless router to synchronize
wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Interval value between 20
and 1000 milliseconds. The default value is 100 milliseconds.
This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. If you
encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to
the value range between 1 and 2346 are recommended.
This setting should remain at its default value of 2346. Setting the
Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance.
A DTIM is a countdown for informing clients of the next window
for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the
wireless router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages
for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM
Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken
to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default
value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 255.
