Beacon Interval: This value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. 
A beacon is a packet broadcast by the wireless AP to keep the network 
synchronized. A beacon includes the wireless LAN service area, a time 
stamp, Delivery Traffic Indicator Maps, and the Traffic Indicator Message 
(TIM). The default value is 100. 

 

RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2,347. 
Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are 
recommended. 

 

DTIM Interval: This value indicates how often the Access Point sends out 
a Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). Lower settings result in more 
efficient networking, while preventing your PC from dropping into power 

saving sleep mode. Higher settings allow your PC to enter sleep mode, thus 
saving power, but interferes with wireless transmissions.   

 

Transmit Rate: The “Transmit Rate “is the data packets limitation this 
wireless AP can transmit. The wireless AP will use the highest possible 
selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets. The default value is 

“Auto”. 

 

Preamble Type: It defines the length of CRC block in the frames during 
the wireless Communication. "Short Preamble" is suitable for heavy traffic 
wireless network. "Long Preamble" provides much communication 
reliability  

6.4.6 Client Info 

You can see the status of all active wireless stations that are connecting to the 
wireless AP.
