Advanced This screen allows users to configure the advance wireless settings of the devicein WDS mode. Fragment Threshold: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to improve performance on noisy networks. Specify a value between 256 and 2346. The default value is 2346. RTS Threshold: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from degrading the performance. Specify a value between 0 and 2347. The default value is 2347. Beacon Interval: Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Interval value between 25 and 1000. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds. DTIM Period: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Period value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings are between 1 and 10. Data rate: You may select a data rate from the drop-down list, however, it is recommended to select auto. This is also known as auto-fallback. N Data Rate: You may select N data rate from the drop-down list, however, it is recommended to select auto. Channel Bandwidth: Select channel bandwidth. Preamble Type: Select a short or long preamble. For optimum performance it is recommended to also configure the client device as the same preamble type. CTS Protection: CTS (Clear to Send) can be always enabled, auto, or disabled. By enabled CTS, the Access Point and clients will wait for a 'clear' signal before transmitting. It is recommended to select auto.
