■ DTIM Interval: a DTIM interval, also known as a Data Beacon Rate, is
the frequency at which an access point's beacon will include a DTIM.
This frequency is usually measured in milliseconds (ms).
■ Fragmentation Threshold: this is the maximum size for directed data
packets transmitted. The use of fragmentation can increase the
reliability of frame transmissions. Because of sending smaller frames,
collisions are much less likely to occur.
■ RTS Threshold: RTS stands for Request to Send, this parameter
controls what size data packet the low level RF protocol issues to an
RTS packet.
■ CTS Protection Mode: CTS stands for Clear to Send. CTS Protection
Mode boosts the router’s ability to intercept 802.11b/ 802.11g
transmissions. Conversely, CTS Protection Mode decreases
performance. Leave this feature disabled unless you encounter severe
communication difficulties between the router and your wireless
clients.
■ WMM Mode: Wireless Multimedia (WMM) mode, which supports
devices that meet the 802.11E QBSS standard.
Profile This feature is used to quickly setup the configurations parameters and
save them into one profile for easy connection.
