Section 3 - Configuration Advanced Wireless Settings Transmit Power: Set the transmit power of the antennas. Beacon Interval: Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value. The default and recommended setting is 100. RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made. Fragmentation: The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. The default setting is 2346. DTIM Interval: A DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. The default setting is 1. Preamble Type: Select Short or Long Preamble. CTS Mode: Clear To Send (CTS) is a mechanism that wireless devices use when the surrounding environment is 'dirty' (i.e. many senders and receivers over the same wireless frequency). When the CTS Mode is set to Always the transmitting device will need to send out an RTS (Request To Send), and the intended receiving device needs to send out a CTS (Clear To Send), before the actual data can be sent. Setting the CTS Mode to Auto indicates that the router will decide whether or not the CTS mechanism should be used or not, depending on the current environment and data length.

Set the transmit power of the antennas.
Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point
to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a
value. The default and recommended setting
is 100.
This value should remain at its default setting
of 2346. If inconsistent data flow is a problem,
only a minor modification should be made.
The fragmentation threshold, which is specified
in bytes, determines whether packets will be
fragmented. Packets exceeding the 2346 byte
setting will be fragmented before transmission.
The default setting is 2346.
A DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message)
is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. The default setting
is 1.

Clear To Send (CTS) is a mechanism that wireless devices use when the surrounding environment is ‘dirty’ (i.e. many senders
and receivers over the same wireless frequency).
When the CTS Mode is set to
Always
the transmitting device will need to send out an RTS (Request To Send), and the
intended receiving device needs to send out a CTS (Clear To Send), before the actual data can be sent.
Setting the CTS Mode to
