v1.0, February 2009
– With the CSMA/CA transmission mechanism, the transmitting station sends out an RTS
packet to the receiving station, and waits for the receiving station to send back a CTS
(Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet data.
The default value is 2346.
• Fragmentation Length. This is the maximum packet size used for fragmentation. Packets
larger than the size programmed in this field will be fragmented. The Fragment Threshold
value must be larger than the RTS Threshold value.
The default value is 2346
• Beacon Interval. The Beacon Interval specifies the interval of time between 20ms and
1000ms for each beacon transmission.
The default value is 100 ms.
• DTIM Interval. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message Interval specifies the data beacon
rate between 1 and 255.
The default value is 1.
• Preamble Type. A long transmit preamble may provide a more reliable connection or slightly
longer range. A short transmit preamble gives better performance. The Auto setting will
automatically handle both long and short preamble.
The default setting is Auto.
The Wireless Optimization Settings feature allows you to adapt the wireless performance
depending on the type of wireless clients that will be used in your network. The available
settings are:
• 11Next Max Speed. This setting yields the best Wireless N performance when only 802.11n
clients are present. This is the default setting.
• 11b/g/Next Mixed Mode. This setting yields the best overall performance when a mixture of
802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n clients are present.
To modify the Advanced Wireless Settings:
1. Select Wireless Settings under the Advanced menu on the left navigation pane of the user
interface. The Advanced Wireless Settings screen will display.
