WLAN Mode
Determines the signal mode or priority for selecting signal
modes available in the WLAN. Options are:
•
802.11 b/g—Use only 2.4 GHz band
•
802.11a—Use only 5 GHz band
•
Auto, 802.11b/g preferred over 802.11a (dual band)
•
Auto, 802.11a preferred over 802.11b/g (dual band)
Note
The preferred band, if available, will be used at
power-on, but the phone may switch to the less
preferred 2.4 GHz band, if available, and the preferred
band is lost. Once the phone has connected to the less
preferred band, it will not scan for the preferred band if
the current band is acceptable, and may remain
connected to the less preferred band.
•

band environment
