"Hidden node" problem can be avoided by the use of RTS-CTS (request to send, clear to
send).  RTS-CTS are optional but can be enabled.  You can also specify a threshold in
the size of the packet under which RTS-CTS will not be used, in which case the hidden
node problem might occur for those packets.  RTS-CTS will solve the hidden node
problem, but will consume BW.

Mathieu.
