Description
The default setting is Full. Select the level of
transmit power from the drop-down menu.
This option sets the maximum transmit power
level relative to the predefined power (this
value differs according to the current country
code).
(Inactive by default.) If you activate
protection, you control how 802.11 devices
know when they should communicate with
another device. This is important in a mixed
environment of both 802.11b and 802.11g/
11n clients.
WARNING: Activating this option (and
configuring the settings) boosts the
interoperability of 802.11b and 802.11g/11n
devices but will severely decrease
performance.
• CTS-only: Choose this option to force all
destination devices to acknowledge their
ability to receive data when a transmission
is initiated. Use this option for compliance
with the Wi-Fi Alliance certification.
• RTS/CTS: Choose this option to force both
sending and receiving devices to confirm
a data exchange on both ends before
proceeding.
