The maximum size of a wireless frame in IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi) networks is typically 2346 bytes for the payload, but the total frame size can be up to 2,347 bytes, including headers and trailers. However, in practice, fragmentation may occur for larger packets, and different wireless standards or configurations may impose additional limits. Additionally, the maximum transmission unit (MTU) can vary based on network settings and protocols used.

What is the size of an Ethernet frame carrying an APR packet?

An Ethernet frame typically has a maximum payload size of 1500 bytes, which includes the APR (Address Resolution Protocol) packet. The APR packet itself is relatively small, usually around 28 bytes, allowing the Ethernet frame to accommodate additional headers and trailers, such as the Ethernet header (14 bytes) and the Frame Check Sequence (4 bytes). Therefore, the total size of an Ethernet frame carrying an APR packet would be at least 64 bytes (minimum frame size) up to 1518 bytes (maximum frame size).


What is the minimum and maximum size of an Ethernet frame?

The minimum size of an Ethernet frame is 64 bytes. Even if the VLAN tag is 4 bytes, the Ethernet frame with VLAN tagging remains 64 bytes.

What are the benefits of a wireless picture frame?

A wireless picture frame allows the picture frame to constantly change pictures without it being hooked up to anything. It's kind of like a slideshow except in a picture frame.


What is the fragmentation threshold?

The maximum frame size wireless device can transmit without fragmenting the frame. A collision happens when two devices that use the same medium transmit packets at exactly the same time. The two packets can corrupt each other, and the result is a group of unreadable pieces of data. If a packet results in a collision, the packet is discarded and it must be transmitted again. This adds to the overhead on the network and can reduce the throughput or speed of the network. Larger frames are more likely to collide with each other than smaller frames. You can make the wireless packets smaller by lowering the fragmentation threshold. If you lower the maximum frame size, it can reduce the number of retransmissions caused by collisions, and lower the overhead caused by retransmissions. However, making frames smaller introduces a different kind of overhead. Smaller frames introduce more overhead on the network too. This is especially true on a wireless network, because every fragmented frame sent from one wireless device to another wireless device requires the receiving device to acknowledge the frame. In times of high packet error rates (over five or ten percent collision or errors), lowering the fragmentation threshold can help improve performance of the wireless network. The time that is saved from reducing re-transmissions can be enough to offset the extra overhead added by using smaller packets. This can result in higher throughput. If the rate of packet error is low and you lower the fragmentation threshold, wireless network performance will decrease. This is because lowering the threshold adds protocol overhead and reduces protocol efficiency. The default maximum value 2346 is recommended.
