Advanced Settings

Here user can set some advanced parameters about wireless.
Fragment Threshold: A threshold (in bytes) whether the packets will be fragmented and at what size. Packets
succeeding the fragmentation threshold of 802.11n WLAN will be split into smaller units suitable for circuit
size. While the packets smaller than fragmentation threshold will not be fragmented. Default is 2346, setting
the fragmentation too low may result in poor performance.
RTS Threshold: Request to Send (RTS) threshold specifies the packet size, when exceeds the size, the RTS/CTS
will be triggered. The default setting of 2347(max length) will disable the RTS.
Beacon Interval: The amount of time between beacon transmissions in is milliseconds. The default is 100ms
and the acceptable is 20- 1024. The beacon transmissions identify the presence of an access point.
Preamble Type: Set wireless LAN preamble type to long or short.
Broadcast SSID: user can only enter the SSID manually for connecting if Disabled box checked.
Protection: Turn off for maximized throughput. Turn on for greater security.
Short GI: This would provide an 11% increase in data rates once enabled. Using the Short Guard Interval will
result in higher packet error rates when the delay spread of the RF channel exceeds the SGI, or if timing
synchronization between the transmitter and receiver is not precise.
WMM Support: You can choose the enable or disable WMM which allows for priority of certain data over the
wireless network.
