RTS Threshold
Should you encounter inconsistent data
flow, only minor reduction of the default value, 23, is
recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the
preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will
not be enabled. The 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. The RTS
Threshold value should remain at its default value of
23.
