•
Power Save Enabled: When
you select this option, the
Wireless-G USB adapter
immediately signals the access
point that it is in Power Save
mode. The access point buffers
all packets until it is polled by
the adapter.
Note: The access point you use
must also support Power Save.
• Nitro XM: Selected by default.
This technology lets devices
communicate directly with each
other while they remain linked
to a Nitro XM-enabled access
point. Nitro XM enables data
compression and can
significantly enhance data
transfer speed.
•
Nitro Mode: Selected by
default. Provides special
protocol enhancements to
improve the throughput of your
wireless connection.
•
RTS (Request To Send)
Threshold: This is a
mechanism designed to ensure
that all devices in a network
can send data to the access
point. If some laptops are
having trouble communicating,
enter the maximum packet size
of data to be sent – 0 to 1500
is recommended. If the packet
size exceeds the value you set,
RTS will be activated. The
default is Disabled (2347).
• Frag (Data fragmentation)
Threshold: If your adapter
often transmits large files, you
can set a limit on packet size. If
the limit is exceeded, the
adapter will split the packet.
The default is Disabled (2346).
