Option Description
Transmit
Power
The default setting is Full. Select the level of transmit power from the
drop-down menu. This option sets the maximum transmit power level
relative to the predefined power (this value differs according to the
current country code).
Protection
Mode
(Disabled by default.) If you activate protection, you control how
802.11 devices know when they should communicate with another
device. This is important in a mixed environment of both 802.11b and
802.11g/11n clients.
WARNING: Activating this option (and configuring the settings)
boosts the interoperability of 802.11b and 802.11g/11n devices but
will severely decrease performance.
• CTS-only: Choose this option to force all destination devices to
acknowledge their ability to receive data when a transmission is
initiated. Use this option for compliance with the Wi-Fi Alliance
certification.
• RTS/CTS: Choose this option to force both sending and receiving
devices to confirm a data exchange on both ends before
proceeding.
