PCI Wireless Network Adapter User’s Manual
5. Select the “Advanced” tab. You can choose the fragmentation threshold (bytes)
to define the maximum data frame size your adapter will transmit. When the packet
error rate is high, you may set the threshold value to transmit shorter frames. You
may select RTS/CTS threshold (bytes) to define when your adapter send out
RTS/CTS frames to reserve bandwidth for transmission. By using the RTS/CTS
function, you may request bandwidth from AP to allow you to have better chance
to send out your data. For the Security, it’s only applicable while WEP is enabled.
You can choose the Deny Unencrypted Data Frames to deny unencrypted data
frames to prevent unknown intruders from probing your wireless station. For the
Authentication Type, the current supported algorithms are Open System, and
Shared Key. The algorithm will be invoked when associated to an Access Point. To
associate to the desired Access Point you must set the algorithm the same as the
desired Access Point. Preamble Type is for framing synchronization. The possible
settings are Long and Short. The setting must be the same as the setting of the
Access Point you are connecting to.
Note: Please note that the default values for Fragmentation Threshold and
RTS/CTS Threshold are recommended. However, you can adjust the settings
(one at a time) to find the settings with the best performance for your
wireless connection. To do this, you will need Network Benchmark software.
Use the software to compare the default setting performance with the
adjusted setting performance.
