Rates
Full
Specify 802.11a, 802.11b and/or 802.11g rates when communicating with the AP. The options dis-
played for this parameter depend on the type of radio (802.11b/g or 802.11a/b/g)installed in the mobile
device.
Options:
B rates only (1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbps)
BG Rates Full (All B and G rates)
G rates only (6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbps)
BG optimized or BG subset (1, 2, 5.5, 6, 11, 24, 36 and 54 Mbps)
A rates only (6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbps)
ABG Rates Full (All A rates and all B and G rates with A rates preferred)
BGA Rates Full (All B and G rates and all A rates with B and G rates preferred)
Ad Hoc (when connecting to another client device instead of an AP)
Default:
BG Rates Full (for 802.11b/g radios)
BGA Rates Full (for 802.11a/b/g radio)
BG radio only – Previous SCU versions may have the default set as BG Rates Full. Depending on
the SCU version, either BG Optimized or BG subset is the default.
It is important the Radio Mode parameter correspond to the AP to which the device is to connect.
For example, if this parameter is set to G rates only, the HX2 may only connect to APs set for G
rates and not those set for B and G rates.
The options for the Radio Mode parameter should be set, based on the antenna configuration, as fol-
