· Wi-Fi Channel — The Wi-Fi channel used. The recommended value is Auto,
which chooses the channel that will provide the least interference.

changes to this value to try to alleviate the problem.
· Fragmentation Threshold — The largest allowable size (in bytes) for a
packet. If the packet is larger than this, it is sent in multiple packets, which

large as possible (up to 2346).
