DESCRIPTION
RTS Threshold
Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake.
Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service data unit) size
turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to zero turns on the RTS/CTS
handshake.
Frag Threshold
The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed messages.
It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent.
Nitro Time
This is the time interval (in usec) between packet bursts. This allows your ZyAIR to
operate in a network with IEEE802.11b wireless LAN devices and still take advantage of
higher transmission rates with IEEE802.11g standard.
