value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast
by the modem router to synchronize the wireless network. The default value is 100.
RTS/CTS Threshold: Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor
reduction of the default value 2347 is recommended. If a network packet is smaller
than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The
modem router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station
and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless
station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin
transmission. In most cases, keep its default value of 2347.
Fragmentation Threshold: This value specifies the maximum size for a packet before
data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high packet error rate,
