domain and selected band. If you wish to operate more than one access point in overlapping
coverage areas, we recommend at least four channels interval between the chosen channels. For
example, for three Access Points in close proximity choose channels 1, 6 and 11 for 11b/g or
channels 36, 40 and 64 for 11a.

TxPower
– the BW2251 transmission output power in dBm.
The value of the TxPower varies according to channel and regulatory domain.
RTS Threshold
– the AP sends Request to Send(RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and
negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a
Clear to Send(CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. The default value is
2347.[recommend]
