Multi-Function Gigabit Wireless-N Client Bridge             

 

 

                      Version 2.0 

 

 

 31 

 

 

 

 

Radio

: Choose to 

Enable

 or 

Disable

 the wireless radio.  

 

Mode

: This drop-down list is fixed to 

Client

 as this is the Client Bridge operating mode. 

 

Band

: Select the IEEE 802.11 mode from the drop-down list. For example, if you are 

sure that the wireless network will be using only IEEE 802.11g clients, then it is 
recommended to select 

802.11g

 only instead of 

2.4 GHz

 

B+G

 which will reduce the 

performance of the wireless network. You may also select 

802.11B+G+N. 

If all of the 

wireless devices you want to connect with this router can connect in the same 
transmission mode, you can improve performance slightly by choosing the 
appropriate "Only" mode. If you have some devices that use a different transmission 
mode, choose the appropriate "Mixed" mode.

  

 

Site Survey

: Click on the Site Survey button to view a list of Access Points in the area. The 

Site Survey page displays information about devices within the 802.11b/g/n frequency. 
Information such as channel, SSID, BSSID, encryption, authentication, signal strength, and 
operating mode are displayed. Select the desired device and then click on the 

Add to AP 

Profile 

button.  

 

 

ƒ

 

SSID

: The SSID is a unique named shared amongst all the points of the wireless 

network. The SSID must be identical on all points of the wireless network and cannot 
exceed 32 characters.  

ƒ

 

Status: 

Displays the current status of the device. 

ƒ

 

Channel

: The channels available are based on the country’s regulation. A wireless 

network uses specific channels in the wireless spectrum to handle communication 
between clients. Some channels in your area may have interference from other 
electronic devices.
