This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field are fragmented. The FragmentationThreshold value must be larger than the RTS Threshold value. • RTS/CTS Threshold. The packet size that is used to determine whether it should 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.
