5. WIFI MANAGER N FOR ADVANCED USERS
WiFi Manager N has been designed to respond to the needs of the widest cross-section of the public. Thus,
after having explained the most useful functionalities in the previous chapters, we dedicate this chapter to
users who wish to take advantage of the subtleties of WiFi, and explore their Router’s more advanced
functionalities. But be careful! Modifying certain settings may have a negative impact on the proper
functioning of your network, and therefore on your Router. You should bear in mind, however, that nothing is
irreversible, and that you can always return to the original configuration or reload a personalized configuration.
In certain cases, your settings will only be taken into account after WiFi Manager N has restarted.
5.1. Configuring your WiFi network’s advanced options
This window contains the settings which affect the functioning of your Hercules Router. If you do not
know their functions, we recommend that you keep the default settings.
- In the General settings window, click the Your
WiFi connection settings button.
- In the Your WiFi connection settings window,
click the Expert WiFi settings button.
- The Fragmentation threshold consists of defining
the size at which data packets are fragmented. If
the size is less than the predefined amount, the
packet is not fragmented. By contrast, if the size is
greater, the packet is fragmented before being
transmitted, then reconstituted at the access point.
Fragmentation lets you improve the success of
transmissions.
- When an RTS threshold is defined, the wireless
device asks the access point for authorization to
transmit data, thereby avoiding data arriving
simultaneously (risk of collision).
Modifying the RTS threshold may affect your
Router’s performance.
- The Beacon Period allows you to define the
wireless network detection interval.
- The DTIM interval corresponds to the
interval between two synchronous frames containing
information on the transmission messages.
