3 Wi-Fi

Introduction

This section provides all information on how to use the wireless features of your DWA0120.

Wi-Fi access point

Your DWA0120 has two Wi-Fi access points:

• The 

5 GHz IEEE 802.11ac Wi-Fi access point

 offers superior transfer rates, is less sensitive to interference and allows you 

to connect IEEE802.11ac and IEEE802.11n Wi-Fi clients that can operate in the 5 GHz band.

• The 

2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11n Wi-Fi access point

 allows you to connect IEEE802.11n Wi-Fi clients (and IEEE802.11b/g 

Wi-Fi clients). Use this access point for Wi-Fi clients that don’t support 5 GHz.

Wi-Fi band steering

By enabling Wi-Fi band steering, the DWA0120 will try to make optimal use of the more performant 5 GHz frequency band. 
Dual-band clients that are connected to the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi access point will automatically be steered to the 5 GHz Wi-Fi 
access point provided that the 5 GHz signal quality is good enough. This ensures that the less performant 2.4 GHz band is 
only used when absolutely necessary.

If you want to enable band steering, see 

“3.4 Enable Wi-Fi band steering to optimise your Wi-Fi” on page 32
