User Manual for the NETGEAR 11 Mbps Wireless USB Adapter MA111 Statistics Page The Statistics page provides real time and historical trend information on the data traffic and performance of your wireless adapter. • Transmit/Receive Performance (%): A real time graph identifying the total, receive, and transmit utilization as a percentage the total possible. • Total/Receive/Transmit Graph: Identifies the trend of transmit/receive data communications over time. • Transmit Kbits and Transmit Packets: Identifies transmit kilobits per second, and transmit packets per second (Tx Packets/s), total transmitted packets, and transmit errors. • Receive Kbits and Receive Packets: Identifies receive kilobits per second, receive packets per second (Rx Packets/s), total received packets, and received errors. Advanced Settings Page The Advanced settings should not require adjustment. Except for the power saving setting, changing any of the settings incorrectly on this page could cause your wireless connection to fail. • Transmit Rate: The default setting is Fully Automatic. • Power Saving: The default setting is Off. • Transmit Power: Lowering the output power level lets you reduce the chance of interference with other nearby access points, but reduces the range of your adapter. • Preamble Type: A long transmit preamble may provide a more reliable connection or slightly longer range. A short transmit preamble might give slightly better performance. • Fragmentation Threshold: This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field will be fragmented. The Fragmentation Threshold value must be larger than the RTS/CTS Threshold value. • RTS/CTS Threshold: The packet size that is used to determine whether to use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) mechanism for packet transmission. CSMA/CD is slightly more efficient. 4-10 202-10032-01 Configuration
