Change The Fragmentation Length, Cts/Rts Threshold, Or Preamble Mode For A Radio - NETGEAR RS180 User Manual

Nighthawk WiFi 7 Dual-Band Router Model RS200, Model RS180, Model RS150v1
to function, WiFi clients must support MU-MIMO (some older devices do not), and they
must be connected to the 5 GHz WiFi band. This feature is enabled by default, but you
can disable it.
To enable or disable MU-MIMO:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window displays.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified when you set
up your router. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings.
The Wireless Settings page displays.
5. Scroll down and select or clear the Enable MU-MIMO check box.
Selecting this check box enables MU-MIMO (the default setting). Clearing this check
box disables MU-MIMO.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Change the fragmentation length, CTS/RTS
threshold, or preamble mode for a radio
For most WiFi networks, the default fragmentation length, CTS/RTS threshold and
preamble mode work fine and we recommend that you do not change the settings. (In
general, these settings are intended for WiFi testing.)
CAUTION: We recommend that you do not change these settings unless directed
by NETGEAR support or unless you are sure what the consequences are. Incorrect
settings might disable the WiFi function of a radio unexpectedly.
NOTE: If the Smart Connect feature is enabled, the fragmentation length,
CTS/RTS threshold, and preamble mode for the 2.4 GHz radio and 5 GHz radio
are combined. That means that you cannot change these settings for the 2.4
GHz radio or 5 GHz radio individually.
