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.
Transmit Power: Transmit power output depends upon the size and RF characteristics because that will
determine the number of APs, channels, and need for antennas.
Ack TimeOut (11a)/ (11g)/: The "ACK time-out" determines how long the program waits after receiving a
packet from a file stream to determine that stream to be a complete file. For details, please go to Section
3.9.
