packet size permitted for Internet transmission. Keep the default
setting, Auto, to have the wireless router select the best MTU for your
Internet connection, To specify a MTU size, select Manual, and enter
the value desired (default is 1400). You should leave this value in the
1200 to 1500 range.

outgoing traffic for your Internet connection. This feature is disabled
by default. To keep activity logs, select Enable.

To keep a permanent record of activity logs as a file on your PC’s hard
drive, Log viewer software must be used. In the Send Log to field,
enter the fixed IP address of the PC running the Log viewer software.
The wireless router will send updated logs to that PC.
