Configuring Wireless LAN Parameters

The default advanced wireless LAN parameter settings usually work well. If you want the AP to

operate in Super-A/G mode, use this feature.

Figure 5-5: Advanced Wireless Settings screen

The wireless LAN parameters are as follows:

• Enable Super-A/G Mode: Enable Super-A/G mode may increase the overall wireless

performance. The default is disable.

• RTS Threshold: 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

2346.

• Fragmentation Length: This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets

larger than the size programmed in this field will be fragmented. The Fragment Threshold

value must be larger than the RTS Threshold value. The default is 2346.

• Beacon Interval: The Beacon Interval. Specifies the interval time between 20ms and 1000ms

for each beacon transmission. The default is 100.

• DTIM Interval: The Delivery Traffic Indication Message. Specifies the data beacon rate

between 1 and 255. The default is 1.
