The following screen will be displayed if you select Advanced from the Wireless tab.
WARNING: Any changes made to this screen will severely affect the wireless operation of the router
WME (Wireless Multimedia Extensions) Enable, when checked, will prioritize traffic according to Access
Category. This feature is used primarily with Voice over IP.
UPASD (Unscheduled Automatic Power Save Delivery) Enable, when checked, enables wireless power save
mode.
Beacon Period: The time interval between beacon frame transmissions. Beacons contain rate and capability
information and are used to identify the access points in the area.
RTS Threshold: RTS/CTS handshaking will be performed for any data or management packet containing a number
of bytes greater than the threshold. If this value is larger than the packet size (typically set by the fragmentation
threshold), no handshaking will be performed. A value of zero will enable handshaking for all MPDUs (MAC
Protocol Data Unit).
Fragmentation Threshold: Any packet larger than this value will be fragmented into multiple packets of the
specified size or smaller.
DTIM Interval: The number of Beacon intervals between DTIM transmissions. Multicast and broadcast frames are
delivered after every DTIM.
Supported Rates (Mbps): These are the allowable communication rates the modem will attempt to use. The rates
are also broadcast within the connection protocol as the rates supported by the modem.
N - not supported: This rate is not supported for transmit.
Y - supported: This rate is supported.
B - basic supported: This rate is supported. Only stations that support all of these basic rates will associate
with the modem.
