Description
Specify whether you want the radio on or off by clicking On or Off.
If you turn off a radio, the AP sends disassociation frames to all the wireless clients it is
currently supporting so that the radio can be gracefully shutdown and the clients can start the
association process with other available APs.
Super A and Super G attempt to increases performance through bursting and frame
compression. Performance increases when the AP communicates with Super A and Super G-
enabled clients. However, with Super A and Super G enabled, the access point transmissions
consume more bandwidth.
• To enable Super A or Super G, select Enabled.
• To disable Super A or Super G, select Disabled.
• To enable Super A or Super G with Dynamic Turbo, select Enable with Dynamic Turbo.
The RTS threshold indicates the size of the data packet above which an RTS packet should
be sent. This helps control traffic flow through the access point, especially one with a lot of
clients.
If you specify a low threshold value, RTS packets will be sent more frequently. This will
consume more bandwidth and reduce the throughput of the packet.
On the other hand, sending more RTS packets can help the network recover from interference
or collisions which might occur on a busy network, or on a network experiencing
electromagnetic interference.
The RTS Threshold value can be between 0 and 2347.
