Note: If you change this value to 802.11 B/G/N and the specified WiFi
security Encryption type is not supported by this value, the security
Encryption type may change to WPA/WPA2 Personal.
WiFi Channel
This is the active channel of the WiFi access point. If your network is having
performance issues (possibly caused by other WiFi networks in the vicinity
using the same channel), try a different WiFi channel. See Change the WiFi
Channel.
RTS Threshold
This setting specifies the smallest packet size, in bytes, for which RTS/CTS
(Request to Send/Clear to Send) handshaking is used. The recommended
value is 2347. Change this value only if you're experiencing inconsistent data
flow. Make only minor changes to this value.
Fragmentation
This setting specifies the largest allowable size, in bytes, for a packet. If the
Threshold
packet is larger than this, it is fragmented into multiple packets before it is
transmitted. To prevent poor network performance, it's recommended to
keep this value as large as possible (up to 2346).
Security
Broadcast
