Access Control

Choose WLAN > Access Control. The page shown in the following figure appears. In this page, you can configure
the wireless access control.
This is the maximum data fragment size (between 256 and 2346bytes) that can be sent
in the wireless network before the router fragments the packet into smaller data frames.
Request to send (RTS) is designed to prevent collisions due to hidden node. A RTS
defines the biggest size data frame you can send before a RTS handshake invoked. The
RTS threshold value is between 0 and 2347.
If the RTS threshold value is greater than the fragment threshold value, the RTS
hankshake do not occur. Because the data frames are fragmented before they reach the
RTS size.
