Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this value to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service data unit) size turns off RTS/CTS.

Fragmentation
Threshold
This is the threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed
messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent.
Enter a value between 256 and 2432.
RTS Threshold
The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) is for enabling RTS/CTS.
Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS
handshake. Setting this value to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service
data unit) size turns off RTS/CTS. Setting this value to zero turns on RTS/CTS.
Enter a new value between 0 and 2432.
Beacon Period
A wireless AP sets out a beacon to announce its presence and maintain an orderly
communication between other wireless devices.
Enter the time (between 20 and 1000 ms) the P-336M waits before sending a
beacon to the wireless clients.
DTIM Interval
A DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is included in a beacon to
synchronize wireless transmission. DTIM is a countdown information for wireless
clients to listen to the next broadcast or multicast messages.
Enter the time (between 1 and 255 ms) the P-336M waits between sending a
beacon with DTIM.
802.11d Enable
802.11d is a wireless communication specification for countries where other
IEEE802.11 devices are not allowed. 802.11d is suitable if you want global roaming
(that is using your wireless devices worldwide).
