WiFi Setup
Transmission Rate: The rate of data transmission should be set
depending on the speed of your wireless network. You can select from a
range of transmission speeds.
CTS Protection Mode: CTS (Clear To Send) is a function used to
minimize collisions among wireless devices on a wireless local area
network (LAN). The default setting is Auto and the Router automatically
uses CTS Protection Mode when your Wireless-G products are
experiencing severe problems and are not able to transmit to the Router
in an environment with heavy traffic. This function boosts the Router's
ability to catch all Wireless-B and Wireless-G transmissions, but it
severely decreases performance.
Beacon interval: Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to
synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value. 100 is the default
setting.
DTIM Interval: The default setting for DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication
Message) is 3. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next
window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
Fragmentation Threshold: The fragmentation threshold, which is
specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented.
Packets exceeding the setting value will be fragmented before
transmission. 2346 is the default setting.
RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. If
inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be
made.
