DTIM Period: Enter a value between 1 and 10 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages Data Rate: The "Data Rate" is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets. N Data Rate: The "Data Rate" is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets for N compliant wireless nodes. Highest to lowest data rate can be fixed. Channel Bandwidth: This is the range of frequencies that will be used. Preamble Type: The "Long Preamble" can provide better wireless LAN compatibility while the "Short Preamble" can provide better wireless LAN performance. CTS Protection: It is recommended to enable the protection mechanism. This mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between 802.11b and 802.11g wireless stations. When the protection mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP will be a little lower due to a lot of frame-network that is transmitted. TX Power: This can be set to a bare minimum or maximum power. 43

Message (DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the
next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages
Data Rate:
The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit

selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
N Data Rate:
The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit

CTS Protection:
It is recommended to enable the protection mechanism. This
mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between

mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP will be a little lower
due to a lot of frame-network that is transmitted.
