39
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
Knowledge Center -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AP Isolation: Isol ates clients connecting to the prima ry SSID.
Beacon Inter val: A ti me interval betwe en an y 2 conse cutive Beacon packets sent by an
Acc ess P oint to synchronize a wireless network. Do NOT change the default value of 100
unless necessar y.
Frag me nt Threshold : Specify a Fragment Threshold value. An y wireless packet
exceeding the preset value will be divided into several fragments before trans miss ion. DO
NOT change the default value of 2346 unless necessar y.
RTS Threshold: If a packet exceeds such set value, RTS/CTS scheme will be
used to reduce collisions. Set it to a smaller value provided that there are distant
clients and interference. For normal SOHO, it is recommended to keep the default
value unchanged; otherwise, device performance may be degraded.
DTIM Inter val: A D TIM (Deliver y Tra ffic Indication Message) Interval is a countdown
infor ming clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast mess ages. When
the packets arrive in the router ’s buffer, the router will send DTIM (delivery traf fic
indication message) and DTIM interval to alert clients of the receiving packets.

WDS Mode
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) includes Wireless Bridge and Wireless AP.
The differences are described as below:
Operating in Wireless AP mode, clients can access Internet by connecting to the
router via an Ethernet cable or wirelessly. Operating in Wireless Bri dge mode,
clients can access Internet by connecting to the router via an Ethernet cable or
wirelessly joining the router's secondary SSID (wireless network) or guest
network.
WDS:
Wireless distribution system (WDS) is a system enabling the wireless
interconnection of access points in an IEEE 802.11 network. It allows a wireless
network to be expanded using multiple access points without the traditional
requirement for a wired backbone to link them. The Tenda wireless router can
function as a base station AP to create a wireless network or as a repeater AP to
repeat and extend the base station AP's wireless network to a farther and wider
59
High Power Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Router
range.
