Item Description
Preamble
Type
A preamble is a signal used in
wireless environment to
synchronize the transmitting timing
including Synchronization and Start
frame delimiter.
 Long
IF in a "noisy" network
environment, the Preamble Type
should be set to Long.
 Short
The Short preamble is intended for
applications where minimum
overhead and maximum
performance is desired. If in a
"noisy" network environment, the
performance would be decreased.
 Auto
Select Auto for the USB adapter to
select the Preamble type
automatically depending on the
Access Point Preamble type.
Fragmentation
Threshold
To fragment MSDU or MMPDU
into small sizes of frames for
increasing the reliability of frame
(The maximum value of 2346
means no fragmentation is needed)
transmission. The performance will
be decreased as well, thus a noisy
environment is recommended.
RTS/CTS
Threshold
This value should remain at its
default setting of 2347. Should
you encounter inconsistent data
flow, only minor modifications of
this value are recommended.
