with each other. For example, in the United States you can deploy
up to three access points in the same area (e.g., channels 1, 6,
11). Also note that the channel for wireless clients is automatically
set to the same as that used by the access point to which it is
linked. (Range: 1-11 (US/Canada); Default: 1)
Auto Channel Select
– Enables the access point to automatically
select an unoccupied radio channel. (Default: Enabled)
Working Mode
– Selects the operating mode for the 802.11g
wireless interface. (Default: b & g mixed mode)
•
b & g mixed mode: Both 802.11b and 802.11g clients can
communicate with the access point (up to 54 Mbps).
•
g only: Only 802.11g clients can communicate with the access
point (up to 54 Mbps).
•
b only: Both 802.11b and 802.11g clients can communicate
with the access point, but 802.11g clients can only transfer
data at 802.11b standard rates (up to 11 Mbps).
Maximum Station Data Rate
– The maximum data rate at
which the access point transmits unicast packets on the
wireless interface. The maximum transmission distance is
affected by the data rate. The lower the data rate, the
longer the transmission distance. (Default: 54 Mbps)
