Field Description

Beacon Interval Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a wireless network. The default value is 100.

DTIM Interval

(Delivery Trac Indication Message) 3 is the default setting. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the

next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.

RTS Threshold

This value should remain at its default setting of 2432. If inconsistent data ow is a problem, only a minor

modication should be made.

Fragmentation Threshold

The fragmentation threshold, which is specied in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented.

Packets exceeding the 2346 byte setting will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting.

areas should use Short preamble type.

protection mechanism, which is used to minimize collisions among stations in a mixed 802.11b & g

environment. The default selection is None.
