AirLive A.DUO User’s Manual

Beacon Interval: Beacon Interval: The device broadcasts beacon frames regularly to
announce its existence. The beacon Interval specifies how often beacon frames are
transmitted in time unit of milliseconds. The default value is

100, and a valid value

should be between 1 and 65,535.

RTS Threshold: RTS/CTS frames are used to gain control of the medium for
transmission. Any unicast (data or control) frames larger than specified RTS threshold

must be transmitted following the RTS/CTS handshake exchange mechanism. The

RTS threshold should have a value between 256-2347 bytes, with a default of

2347. It

is recommended that this value does not deviate from the default too much.

Fragmentation: When the size of a unicast frame exceeds the fragmentation
threshold, it will be fragmented before the transmission. It should have a value of
256-2346 bytes, with a default of 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you

should slightly decrease the Fragmentation Threshold.

DTIM Interval: The A.DUO buffers packets for stations that operate in the
power-saving mode. The Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) informs such

power-conserving stations that there are packets waiting to be received by them. The

DTIM interval specifies how often the beacon frame should contain DTIMs. It should
have a value between 1 to 255, with a default value of 3.
