Using the Configuration Menu (continued) Advanced > Performance > 802.11g (continued) CTS Mode- 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 wireless throughput. 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. 802.11g only mode- Select this mode to restrict your network to only those devices that employ the 802.11g standard. Enabling this mode will en- sure that you maintain the highest connectivity rate, unhampered by any connection to an 802.11b device.
