4.6.2 Advanced Settings
Choose menu “Wireless → Advanced Settings”, you can configure the advanced settings of
your 2.4GHz / 5GHz wireless network.
Fragmentation Threshold - This value is the maximum size determining whether packets
will be fragmented. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network
performance due to excessive packets, 2346 is the recommended default setting.
RTS Threshold - Here you can specify the RTS (Request to Send) Threshold. If the packet is
larger than the specified RTS Threshold size, the Router will send RTS frames to a particular
receiving station and negotiate the sending of a data frame. The default value is 2346.
Beacon Interval - Enter a value between 20-1000 milliseconds for the Beacon Interval. The
beacons are the packets sent by the Router to synchronize a wireless network. Beacon
Interval value determines the time interval of the beacons. The default value is 100.
Preamble Type Preamble type defines the length of CRC block in the frames during the
wireless communication. “Short Preamble” is suitable for high traffic wireless network. “Long
Preamble” can provide more reliable communication. Default is “Long Preamble”.
