5 ms should provide twice as much bandwidth as required for your 100 Hz
sender. Something else must be wrong. I would suggest sniffing on the
network now (RTcap, also applicable on the sender directly) to get an
impression of what is really happening.

RTmac/TDMA documentation can be found under the usual READMEs. Advanced
setup makes sense when you want to take care of special transmission
orderings or dependencies in your network or if your have unbalanced
bandwidth requirements of some nodes.

As long as you have such simple questions... ;)
