Parameter Log
This feature enables a user to save their current settings to their local hard drive of
their PC. This is primarily use for importing and exporting configurations/settings.

RTS threshold
RTS Threshold is the frame size above which an RTS/CTS handshake will be performed
before attempting to transmit. RTS/CTS asks for permission to transmit to reduce
collisions but adds considerable overhead. Disabling RTS/CTS can reduce overhead
and latency in WLANs where all stations are close together but can increase collisions
and degrade performance in WLANs where stations are far apart and unable to sense
each other to avoid collisions (aka Hidden Nodes). If you are experiencing excessive
collisions you can try turning RTS/CTS on or (if already on) reduce RTS/CTS Threshold
on the affected stations.
Fragmentation threshold
Fragmentation Threshold is the maximum length of the frame beyond which payload
must be broken up (fragmented) into two or more frames. Collisions occur more often
