Fragmentation Threshold This value specifies the maximum size for a pack-
et before data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high
packet error rate, you may slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold.
Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network per-
formance. Only minor reduction of this value is recommended. In most cases,
it should remain at its default value of 2346.
