Description

 

Fragmentatio

n threshold

 

A threshold, specified in bytes, that determines whether packets will be 

fragmented and at what size. On an 802.11 connection, packets that are larger 

the fragmentation threshold are split into smaller units suitable for the circuit 

size. Packets smaller than the specified fragmentation threshold value are not 

fragmented.   

Enter a value between 

256

 and 

2346

. If user experience a high packet error 

rate, try to increase this value slightly. Setting the fragmentation threshold too 

low may result in poor performance. 

RTS 

threshold

 

This is number of bytes in the packet size beyond which the gateway 

invokes its RTS/CTS (request to send, clear to send) mechanism. Packets 

larger than this threshold trigger the RTS/CTS mechanism, while the 

gateway transmits smaller packets without using RTS/CTS. The default 

setting of 

2347

, which is the maximum, disables the RTS threshold 

mechanism. 

DTIM interval

 

A delivery traffic indication message (DTIM), also known as a beacon, is a 

countdown informing wireless clients of the next window for listening to 

broadcast and multicast messages. When the gateway has broadcast or 

multicast messages for its clients, it sends its next DTIM message with this 

DTIM interval value. The clients hear the beacons and awaken as needed 

to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. 

Beacon 

interval

 

The amount of time (in milliseconds) between beacon transmissions, each 

of which identifies the presence of an access point. By default, wireless 

clients passively scan all radio channels, listening for beacons coming from 

access points. Before a client enters power-save mode, it needs the beacon 

interval to determine when to wake up for the next beacon (and learn 

whether the access point has any messages for it). User can enter any 

value between 

1

 and 

65535

, but the recommended range is 

1 - 1000
