Fragmentation Set the threshold of fragmentation length. If the length of a
Threshold packet is greater than the value, the packet is
automatically fragmented into several packets. Because

network, the value of Fragmentation Threshold cannot
be too small. The default value is 2346.
RTS Threshold Set the CTS/RTS threshold. If the length of a packet is
greater than the value, the router sends an RTS frame to
the destination station to negotiate. After receiving the
RTS frame, the wireless station responds with a Clear to
Send (CTS) frame to the router, indicating that they can
communicate with each other. The default value is 2346.
