ProSafe Premium 3 x 3 Dual-Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP660 Figure 64. 2. Optional: To configure advanced wireless settings for the 802.11a/na modes, click the 802.11a/na tab. 3. Specify the settings as explained in the following table: Table 31. Advanced wireless settings Setting RTS Threshold (0-2347) Description Enter the Request to Send (RTS) threshold. The default setting is 2347. If the packet size is equal to or less than the RTS threshold, the wireless access point uses the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) mechanism, and the data frame is transmitted immediately after the silence period. If the packet size is larger than the RTS threshold, the wireless access point uses the CSMA with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) mechanism. In this situation, the transmitting station sends an RTS packet to the receiving station and waits for the receiving station to return a Clear to Send (CTS) packet before sending the actual packet data.

Setting
Description
RTS Threshold (0–2347)
Enter the Request to Send (RTS) threshold. The default setting is
2347.
If the packet size is equal to or less than the RTS threshold, the
wireless access point uses the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with
Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) mechanism, and the data frame is
transmitted immediately after the silence period.
If the packet size is larger than the RTS threshold, the wireless access
point uses the CSMA with Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA)
mechanism. In this situation, the transmitting station sends an RTS
packet to the receiving station and waits for the receiving station to
return a Clear to Send (CTS) packet before sending the actual packet
data.
