Short Preamble
The fragmentation threshold determines the size at which
packets are fragmented (sent as several pieces instead of
as one block). Use a low setting in areas where
communication is poor or where there is a great deal of
radio interference. This function will help you to improve the
network performance.
The RTS threshold determines the packet size at which the
radio issues a request to send (RTS) before sending the
packet. A low RTS Threshold setting can be useful in areas
where many client devices are associating with the device,
or in areas where the clients are far apart and can detect
only the device and not each other. You can enter a setting
ranging from 0 to 2347 bytes.
The default TX power is 100%. In case of shortening the
distance and the coverage of the wireless network, input a
smaller value to reduce the radio transmission power. For
example, input 80 to apply 80% Tx power.
Default: Disable. It is a performance parameter for 802.11
