Wireless-G devices are present. However, performance of your Wireless-G devices may
decrease.
Basic Rates: The SNMP screen allows you to customize the Simple Network Management.
The default value is set to Default. Depending on the wireless mode you have selected, a
default set of supported data rates will be selected. The default setting will ensure maximum
compatibility with all devices. You may also choose to enable all data rates by selecting ALL.
For compatibility with former Wireless-B devices, select 1-2Mbps.
Antenna select: The default value is set to Diversity. In Diversity mode, both antennas will
be enabled. Otherwise, you can have wireless transmission operating only on the Left or
Right antenna.
Beacon Interval: This value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon.The default value
is 100. Enter a value between 20 and 1000 milliseconds. The Beacon Interval value indicates
the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Access Point to
synchronize the wireless network.
RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2346.Should you encounter
inconsistent data flow, only minor reductions are recommended.
Fragmentation Threshold: This value specifies the maximum size for a packet before data is
fragmented into multiple packets. It should remain at its default setting of 2346. A smaller
setting means smaller packets, which will create more packets for each transmission. Only
minor reductions of this value are recommended.
DTIM Interval: .The default value is 3. This value, between 1 and 255 milliseconds, indicates
the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown
field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
When the Access Point has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it
sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Access Point Clients may hear the beacons
and informed to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.
