DTIM Interval This value, between 3 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message
(DTIM) . A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages . When the Router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value . Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages . The default value is 3 . Fragmentation Threshold This value specifies the maximum size for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets . If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold . Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network performance . Only minor reduction of the default value is recommended . In most cases, it should remain at its default value of 2346 . RTS Threshold Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor reduction of the default value, 2347, is recommended . If a network packet is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled . The Router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame . After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission . The RTS Threshold value should remain at its default value of 2347 . Click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to clear your changes .
