The following table describes the labels in this screen. 

Network Setting > Wireless > Others

RTS/CTS 
Threshold

Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS (Request To Send)/CTS 
(Clear To Send) handshake. 

Enter a value between 0 and 2347. 

Fragmentation 
Threshold

This is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between 256 and 
2346. 

Auto Channel 
Timer

If you set the channel to Auto in the Network Setting > Wireless > General screen, 
specify the interval in minutes for how often the Device scans for the best channel. Enter 0 
to disable the periodical scan.

Output Power

Set the output power of the Device. If there is a high density of APs in an area, decrease 
the output power to reduce interference with other APs. Select one of the following: 20%, 
40%, 60%, 80% or 100%. 

Beacon Interval

When a wirelessly networked device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon interval. 
This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again.

The interval tells receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in low power 
mode before waking up to handle the beacon. This value can be set from20ms to 1000ms. 
A high value helps save current consumption of the access point.

DTIM Interval

Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is the time period after which broadcast and 
multicast packets are transmitted to mobile clients in the Power Saving mode. A high DTIM 
value can cause clients to lose connectivity with the network. This value can be set from 1 
to 100.
