Configuration Guide

4.2.12.3. Data Rate Setting

The fact is that low data rate transmissions consume more air time than

high data rates. It may affect the system performance. By disabling low

data rates, AP rules out some remote clients with poor signal strength

and hence low link data rate, preventing them from consuming too

much air time and leaves the air time for higher data rates

transmissions. In this way, overall system performance can be

improved. The most common way we use it is to disable low data rates

(e.g., 1M, 2M) when the AP performance is reported poor.
