User's Manual for the NETGEAR Super AG Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter WG111U
Understanding the Advanced Settings Page
To display the Advanced Settings page, click the Advanced Settings button on the Settings page.
Figure 4-5: Advanced Settings page
The Advanced settings should not require adjustment. Except for the power saving setting,
changing any of the settings incorrectly on this page could cause your wireless connection to fail.
•
Power Saving: Select Normal or Max if you are running on battery power.
•
Preamble: A long transmit preamble may provide a more reliable connection or slightly
longer range. A short transmit preamble might give slightly better performance.
•
Transmit Power: Lowering the output power level lets you reduce the chance of interference
with other nearby access points, but reduces the range of your adapter.
•
Wireless Mode: Select the wireless protocols you will use. Depending on your wireless
adapter, you can choose some or all of the available 802.11 wireless protocols. Note that if the
wireless network you are communicating with uses the 108 Mbps 802.11g mode, you must
include that in your selection (for example, if you are using the WG111U with the NETGEAR
WGT624 108 Mbps Wireless Firewall Router).
•
Fragmentation Threshold: This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets
larger than the size programmed in this field will be fragmented. The Fragmentation Threshold
value must be larger than the RTS/CTS Threshold value.
