Beacon Interval
A beacon is a packet broadcast by L13 to synchronize the wireless network.
The Beacon Interval value indicates how often the beacon is sent
DTIM Interval
The Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is a countdown value that
informs wireless clients of the next opportunity to receive multicast and
broadcast messages. This value ranges between 1 and 16384.
Fragmentation
Threshold
Packets that are larger than this threshold are fragmented into multiple
packets. Try to increase the fragmentation threshold if you encounter high
packet error rates. Do not set the threshold too low, as this can result in
reduced networking performance.
RTS Threshold
L13 sends Request to Send (RTS) packets to the wireless client in order to
negotiate the dispatching of data. The wireless client responds with a Clear to
Send (CTS) packet, signaling that transmission can commence. If the number
of packets is less than the preset threshold, then the RTC/CTS mechanism will
not be active. If you encounter inconsistent data flow, try a minor reduction
of the RTS threshold size.
