Advanced Wireless Settings Screen Fields

RTS Threshold (0-2347). Request to Send Threshold. The packet size that is used to

determine if it 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. With the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the

transmitting station sends out an RTS packet to the receiving station, and waits for the

receiving station to send back a CTS (Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet

data. The default is 2347.

Fragmentation Length (256-2346).

This is the maximum packet size used for

fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field are fragmented. The

fragmentation threshold value has to be larger than the RTS threshold value. The default is

2346.

Beacon Interval (100-1000).

The beacon interval specifies the time in milleseconds between

100 and 1000 transmissions, which allows the access point to synchronize the wireless

network. The default is 100.

Aggregation Length (1024-65535) (11ng).

The aggregation length defines the size of

aggregated packets. Larger aggregation lengths might sometimes lead to better network

performance. The default is 65535.

A-MPDU (11ng).

Aggregated MAC protocol data unit. Aggregates several MAC frames into a

single large frame to achieve higher throughput. The default is Enable.
