3. Utilities Chapter 3 - Software Configuration Wireless (Cont.) Basic Rate Set (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe) - This field indicates the basic rates that wireless clients must support. Use "1 & 2 Mbps" only when backward compatibility is needed for some older wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of 2Mbps. Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) - Fragmentation is used to divide 802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to the destination. Enable fragmentation by setting a specific packet size threshold. If there is an excessive number of collisions on the WLAN, experiment with different fragmentation values to increase the reliability of frame transmissions. The default value (2346) is recommended for normal use. RTS Threshold (0-2347) - The RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send) function is used to minimize collisions among wireless stations. When RTS/CTS is enabled, the router refrains from sending a data frame until another RTS/CTS handshake is completed. Enable RTS/CTS by setting a specific packet size threshold. The default value (2347) is recommended. DTIM Interval (1-255) (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe) - DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is a wireless message used to inform clients in Power Saving Mode when the system should wake up to receive broadcast and multicast messages. Type the time interval in which the system will broadcast a DTIM for clients in Power Saving Mode. The default value (3) is recommended. Beacon Interval (1-65535) - This field indicates the time interval in milliseconds that a system broadcast packet, or beacon, is sent to synchronize the wireless network. The default value (100 milliseconds) is recommended. Enable Frame Bursting? (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe) - This field allows you to enable frame-bursting mode to improve performance with wireless clients that also support frame-bursting. Enable Radio? (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe) - Selecting "Yes" enables the wireless function during user-defined dates and times. Wireless users will not be able to connect on non-selected dates and times. Date to Enable Radio (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe) - This field defines the dates that the wireless function will be enabled. Time to Enable Radio (WL500g/WL500g Deluxe) - This field defines the time range that the wireless function will be enabled on each of the selected dates. ASUS Wireless Router 43

- This field indicates the basic
rates that wireless clients must support. Use “1 & 2 Mbps” only when
backward compatibility is needed for some older wireless LAN cards with
a maximum bit rate of 2Mbps.
Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) –
Fragmentation is used to divide
802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to
the destination. Enable fragmentation by setting a specific packet size
threshold. If there is an excessive number of collisions on the WLAN,
experiment with different fragmentation values to increase the reliability
of frame transmissions. The default value (2346) is recommended for normal
