Section 3 - Configuration Advanced Wireless This window allows you to change the behavior of the 802.11g wireless radio from the standard settings. Please be aware that any changes to the factory default settings may adversely affect the behavior of your network. Transmit Power: Set the transmit power of the antennas. Beacon interval: Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value. 100 is the default setting and is recommended. RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of2346. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made. Fragmentation: Thefragmentationthreshold,whichisspecifiedinbytes,determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting. DTIM Interval: (DeliveryTraffic Indication Message) 1 is the default setting. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. Preamble Type: Select Short or Long Preamble.The Preamble defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the wireless router and the roaming wireless network adapters. Auto is the default setting. Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type. CTS Mode: CTS (ClearTo Send) is a function used to minimize collisions among wireless devices on a wireless local area network (LAN). CTS will make sure the wireless network is clear before a wireless client attempts to send wireless data. Enabling CTS will add overhead and may lower wireless through put. None: CTS is typically used in a pure 802.11g environment. If CTS is set to "None" in a mixed mode environment populated by 802.11b clients, wireless collisions may occur frequently. Always: CTS will always be used to make sure the wireless LAN is clear before sending data. Auto: CTS will monitor the wireless network and automatically decide whether to implement CTS based on the amount of traffic and collisions that occurs on the wireless network. Wireless Mode: Select one of the following: Mixed 802.11g and 802.11b - Select if you are using both 802.11b and 802.11g wireless clients. 802.11n Only - Select only if all of your wireless clients are 802.11n. Mixed 802.11n, 802.11b, and 802.11g - Select if you are using a mix of 802.11n, 11g, and 11b wireless clients. D-Link DIR-605L User Manual 37

Section 3 - Configuration
Set the transmit power of the antennas.
Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a
wireless network. Specify a value.
100
is the default setting and is
recommended.
This value should remain at its default setting of
2346
. If inconsistent
data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made.
The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines
whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding the 2346
byte setting will be fragmented before transmission.
2346
is the
default setting.
(Delivery Traffic Indication Message)
1
is the default setting. A DTIM
is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening
to broadcast and multicast messages.
Select Short or Long Preamble. The Preamble defines the length of
the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique
for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the wireless router and the roaming wireless network adapters.
Auto is the default setting. Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type.
CTS (Clear To Send) is a function used to minimize collisions among wireless devices on a wireless local area network (LAN). CTS will make
sure the wireless network is clear before a wireless client attempts to send wireless data. Enabling CTS will add overhead and may lower
