Wireless Status Section 

This  section  show  a  histogram  to  represent  wireless  channel  status  on  your 
environment,  channel  loading  value  between  0~100,  higher  value  represents 
heavy  traffic  on  this  channel.  For  example:  value  0  means  no  network  traffic 
transmits on this channel, value 100 means the channel is heavy congested. 

 

If  you  encounter the  situation  of  wireless  throughput  degraded  or  slow  response 
of  network  transmission,  you  may  consider  choosing  a  less  congested  channel 
base  on  the  information  provided  by  this  section,  and  change  you  wireless 
channel on Wireless Basic Section. 

Setting Up Your Wireless LAN 

You  can  use  the  CH6643E  as  an  access  point  for  a  wireless  LAN  (WLAN)  without 
changing its default settings. 

To enable security for your WLAN, you can do the following on the CH6643E: 

 

Encrypt wireless LAN transmissions  

 

Restrict  wireless  LAN  access  to  further  prevent  unauthorized  WLAN  intrusions 
using the 

Wireless Access Control Section

 

CAUTION:

  Never  provide  your  SSID,  WPA  or  WEP 

passphrase, or WEP key to anyone who is not authorized to 
use your WLAN. 

Connect  at  least  one  computer  to  the  CH6643E  Ethernet  port  to  perform 
configuration.  Do  not  attempt  to  configure  the  CH6643E  over  a  wireless 
connection.
