5.2.2 Advanced Wireless Settings
The administrator can set the RTS threshold and fragmentation threshold on this page. In most
circumstance, the default settings can meet general requirements. If occasionally wireless network
needs to be tuned, the following parameters will assist with that purpose.
RTS Threshold: To control station access to the medium and to alleviate this effect of the
hidden terminal problem, the administrator can tune this RTS threshold value. A lower RTS
Threshold setting can be useful in areas where many client devices are associating with WAB-
3003 or in areas where the clients are far apart and can detect only WAB-3003 and not each
other.
Fragmentation Threshold: An uncast frame larger than this threshold will be fragmented
before transmission. If a significant number of collisions are occurring, the administrator can try
to set a smaller value of the threshold to see whether it helps. A smaller value results in smaller
packets but allows a larger number of packets in transmission. A lower Fragment Threshold
setting can be useful in areas where communication is poor or disturbed by a serious amount of
radio interference.
