Settings

You should not change these advanced parameters unless you know what effect the changes will

have on this access point.

Parameter Description

Fragment Threshold

“Fragment Threshold” specifies the maximum size of packet during the

fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this value too low, it will

result in bad performance.

Do not modify default value if you don’t know

what it is, default value is 2346

RTS Threshold

When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the access point will

not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet. Do not modify

default value if you don’t know what it is, default value is 2347

Beacon Interval

The interval of time that this access point broadcast a beacon. Beacon is

used to synchronize the wireless network.

Do not modify default value if

you don’t know what it is, default value is 100

Data Rate

The “Data Rate” is the rate this access point uses to transmit data packets.

The access point will use the highest possible selected transmission rate to

transmit the data packets.

N Data Rate

Set the data rate of 802.11 Draft-N clients, available options are MCS 0 to

MCS 15, it’s safe to set this option to ‘Auto’ and it’s not necessary to change

this value unless you know what will happen after modification.

Channel Width

Select wireless channel width (bandwidth taken by wireless signals of this

access point). It’s suggested to select ‘Auto 20/40MHz’. Do not change to ’20

MHz’ unless you know what it is.
