You can view or configure the following settings:
• Fragmentation Length (256-2346): This is the maximum packet size used for
fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field are fragmented.
• CTS/RTS Threshold (1-2347): The packet size that is used to determine whether the
Internet adapter should use the CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision
Avoidance) mechanism for wireless packet transmission.

Using Push 'N' Connect (WPS)

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) lets you connect to a wireless network without entering its
passphrase or wireless key. Instead, you use a button to connect.
If you have a NETGEAR router, this feature is called Push 'N' Connect. Look for the
symbol on the router to make sure the NETGEAR router supports WPS. For
non-NETGEAR routers, refer to the user manual to determine if the router supports WPS.
Note: The Wireless HD Video and Gaming Adapter (WNCE4004)
Installation Guide explains how to use WPS during installation.
