Figure 4-7: Advanced Wireless Settings page

Warning: The wireless access point is already configured with the optimum settings. Do not alter
these settings unless directed by NETGEAR support. Incorrect settings may disable the wireless
access point unexpectedly.

The advanced wireless settings are explained below:

Enable SuperG Mode: Enable SuperG mode may increase the overall wireless performance.
Default: Disabled.

RTS Threshold: Request to Send Threshold. The packet size that is used to determine if it
should use the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with 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. Default: 2346.
