Cong - Advanced

Click Advanced on Config-Basic page

to reveal this tab. This section allows

you to set up additional parameters

for the wireless card. We recommend

using the default values for all items in

this window.

RTS Threshold (0-2347)

The RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear

to Send) function is used to minimize

collisions among wireless stations. When RTS/CTS is enabled, the router

refrains from sending a data frame until another RTS/CTS handshake is

completed. Enable RTS/CTS by setting a specic packet size threshold. The

default value (2347) is recommended.

Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346)

Fragmentation is used to divide 802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments)

that are sent separately to the destination. Enable fragmentation by setting

a specic packet size threshold. If there is an excessive number of collisions

on the WLAN, experiment with different fragmentation values to increase the

reliability of frame transmissions. The default value (2346) is recommended for

normal use.
