Select the wireless mode from the drop-down list. You can choose
from the following options:
• 802.11b
• 802.11g
• 802.11b/g Mixed
You can assign a channel number to the AP (if necessary) and modify
the Tx Pwr Mode.
The
Channel Number
is a means of assigning frequencies to a series
of access points, when many are used in the same WLAN, to minimize
noise. There are 11 channel numbers that may be assigned. If you assign
channel number 1 to the first in a series, then channel 6, then channel 11,
and then continue with 1, 6, 11, you will have the optimum frequency
spread to decrease “noise.”
If you click on the button
Select the optimal channel
, a popup screen
will display the choices. It will select the optimal channel for you. You can
also set it up to automatically select the optimal channel at boot up.
