Configuring 802.11A/Na Advanced Wireless Settings - NETGEAR WNDAP350 Reference Manual

Collision Detection) mechanism or the CSMA/CA mechanism for packet
transmission. With the CSMA/CD transmission mechanism, the transmitting station
sends out the actual packet as soon as it has waited for the silence period. 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 is 2347.
• Fragmentation Length (256 - 2346). This is the maximum packet size used for
fragmentation. Packets larger than the size programmed in this field will be
fragmented. The Fragmentation threshold value must be larger than the RTS
threshold value. The default is 2346.
• Beacon Interval (100 - 1000). The Beacon Interval. Specifies the interval time
between 100ms and 1000ms for each beacon transmission, which allows the access
point to synchronize the wireless network. The default is 100.
• Aggregation Length (1024-65535) (11ng). The aggregation length defines the size
of aggregated packets. Larger aggregation lengths may sometimes lead to better
network performance. The default is 65535.
• A-MPDU (11ng). Aggregated MAC Protocol Data Unit. Aggregates several MAC
frames into a single large frame to achieve higher throughput. The default is enabled.
• RIFS Transmission (11ng). Reduced Interframe Space. RIFS transmissions are
shorter than other interframe spaces, and if enabled allow transmission of successive
frames at different transmit powers. The default is disabled.
• DTIM Interval. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message. Specifies the data beacon
rate between 1 and 255. The default is 3.
• Preamble Type (11b/bg only).: A long transmit preamble may provide a more
reliable connection or a slightly longer range. A short transmit preamble gives better
performance. The Auto settings automatically handles both long and short
preambles. The default is Auto.
• Antenna. Enable the internal or external antenna. The internal antenna is enabled by
default.
• 802.11d. Enable this option to include support for additional regulatory domains that
are not in the current standard.
• Client Isolation. This option, when enabled, blocks communication between wireless
clients that are associated to different VAPs. The default is Disable.
• Max Wireless Clients. The number of wireless clients that can associate with the AP
at one time. The default is 63.
