a clear to send (CTS) message to all stations within its range to notify
all other stations to defer transmission. It will also conrm to the
requesting station that the access point has reserved it for the
timeframe of the requested transmission. NOTE: If the “Hidden Node”
problem is an issue, specify the packet size: The RTS mechanism
will be activated if the data size exceeds the value you set. The default
value here is 2347. CAUTION: Enabling RTS Threshold will cause
redundant network overhead that could negatively affect the
throughput performance instead of providing a remedy. This value
should remain at its default setting. Should inconsistent data ow
occur, only minor modications of this value are recommended.
By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible
rate for transmission. Select the basic rates to be used among the
following options: “Auto,” “1,” “2,” “5.5,” “11” or “54 Mbps.” For most
networks, the default setting is “Auto,” which is the best choice. When
set to “Auto,” the transmission rate will select the optimal rate. If
obstacles or interference is present, the system will automatically
fall back to a lower rate.
A preamble is a signal used in wireless environment
to synchronize the transmitting timing, including Synchronization and
Start frame delimiter. NOTE: If you want to change Preamble Type
to “Long” or “Short,” check the setting of the access point.

The 802.11g standard includes a protection
mechanism to facilitate mixed 802.11b and 802.11g operations.
(Without such a mechanism, the two standards could interfere with
each other and decrease the network’s performance.)
