translation mode is either enabled (default) or disabled.

ERFORMANCE
The Performance menu determines the unit performance:
•
Dwell Time (Access Point Only) —
The time spent on a radio channel before
hopping to the next channel in the sequence.
•
RTS Threshold –
Minimum packet size to require an RTS. For packets with a
size below RTS Threshold value, an RTS is not sent and the packet is
transmitted directly to the WLAN.
•
Max Multicast Rate —
Multicast and Broadcast transmissions are not
acknowledged, so the chance of error increases. By default, the unit will always
transmit broadcasts, multicasts, and control frames at the minimum possible
rate, 1 Mbps.
