Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a
network. Specify a beacon interval value. The default (100) is
recommended.
(Delivery Traffic Indication Message)- DTIM is a countdown in-
forming clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and
multicast messages.
The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, deter-
mines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding the
2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346
is the default setting
This value should remain at its default setting of 2346.
If you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications to
the value range between 256 and 2346 are recommended
Choose full, half (-3dB), quarter (-6dB), eighth (-9dB), minimum power.
This tool can be helpful for security purposes if you wish to limit
the transmission range.
Super Mode is a group of performance enhancement features that
increase end user application throughput in an 802.11a network.
For top performance, all wireless devices on the network should
be Super Mode capable. Select either Disabled, Super Mode
without Turbo, Super Mode with Dynamic Turbo, or Super Mode
with Static Turbo.
Standard 802.11a support, no enhanced capabilities.
Capable of Packet Bursting, FastFrames, Compression, and no
Turbo mode.
