access of the configuring mobile base station must be changed to this
new network name after closing the basic configuration.
Selection of a radio channel
The base station operates in a certain radio channel. The radio channel will be
selected from a list of up to 11 channels in the 2,4 GHz frequency range or
up to 19 channels in the 5 GHz frequency range. (in various countries some
radio channels are restricted, see appendix).
The used channel and frequency range define the operating of the common
radio standard, in doing so the 5 GHz frequency range correspond to the IEEE
802.11a standard and the 2,4 GHz frequency range to the IEEE 802.11g and
IEEE 802.11b standard.
If no further base stations operate in reach of the base station, any radio
channel can be adjusted. Otherwise, the channels in the 2,4 GHz band must
be chosen in the way that they preferably do not overlap one another or have
a distance as great as possible respectively. The automatic setting is normally
enough in the 5 GHz band, in which the LANCOM 54 Wireless base station
itself adjust the best channel via TPC and DSF.

Connect charge protection
Connect charge protection blocks DSL connections that go beyond a previ-
ously set limit, thus protecting you from unexpectedly high connection
charges.
If you run the LANCOM 54 Wireless via DSL access with a flat-rate tarriff, you
can set the maximum connecting-time in minutes.
Any budget can be deactivated by entering the value '0.'
In basic settings the charge protection is defined to maximum 600
minutes within seven days. Adapt this setting to your personal needs
or deactivate the charge protection if you have arranged a flatrate
with your provider.
