Intel 3945ABG - Manual (Page 113)

Mixed Mode Protection Use to avoid data collisions in a mixed 802.11b and 802.11g
environment. Request to Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS)
should be used in an environment where clients may not hear
each other. CTS-to-self can be used to gain more throughput
in an environment where clients are in close proximity and can
hear each other.
Preamble Mode Changes the preamble length setting received by the access
point during an initial connection. Always use a long preamble
length to connect to an access point. Auto Tx Preamble allows
automatic preamble detection. If supported, short preamble
should be used. If not, use long preamble (Long Tx Preamble).
NOTE: This feature is not installed through an Administrator
Package when a user's computer has an Intel PRO/Wireless
3945ABG Network Connection.
Power Management Power Management: Allows you to select a balance between
power consumption and adapter performance. The wireless
adapter power settings slider sets a balance between the
computer's power source and the battery.
Select a balance between power consumption and adapter
performance.
