Configuring the Advanced Wireless Settings We recommend that the Advanced Wireless Settings should be modified only by an administrator very familiar with the ramifications of changing the Wireless LAN parameters. If set incorrectly, they can adversely affect the performance or connectivity of your wireless access point. The default settings should be adequate in most situations. Following is a description of each of the Wireless LAN Parameters. • WMM Support. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Quality of Service (QoS) feature that provides prioritization of wireless data packets from different applications based on four access categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS, both the application and the client running that application must be WMM-enabled. Legacy applications that do not support WMM, and applications that do not require QoS, are assigned to the best-effort category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video. The default setting is Enabled. • RTS Threshold. The Request to Send Threshold packet size determines if the wireless access point should use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA mechanism for packet transmission: - With the CSMA/CD transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out the actual packet as soon as it has waited for the silence period.
