[. . . ] • Beacon Interval: A beacon is a management frame used in wireless networks that transmitted periodically to announce the presence and provide information about the router’s wireless network. The interval is the amount time between each beacon transmission. Default Value: 100 milliseconds (range: 25-1000) • DTIM: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. • Fragment Threshold: Wireless frames can be divided into smaller units (fragments) to improve performance in the presence of RF interference and at the limits of RF coverage. Fragmentation will occur when frame size in bytes is greater than the Fragmentation Threshold. This setting should remain at its default value of 2346 bytes. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in poor performance. • RTS Threshold: The Request To Send (RTS) function is part of the networking protocol. A wireless device that needs to send data will send a RTS before sending the data in question. The destination wireless device will send a response called Clear to Send (CTS). The RTS Threshold defines the smallest data packet size allowed to initiate the RTS/CTS function. Default Value: 2347 (range: 1-2347) • Short Preamble: Using a short (400ns) guard interval can increase throughput. However, it can also increase error rate in some installations, due to increased 2.
