Keep in mind that after saving this setting, you
will be disconnected from any existing wireless
connection to the devolo Magic 2 WiFi

. In
this case, configure the device over Ethernet.
Network name
The network name (SSID) determines the name of
your wireless network. You can see this name
when logging onto the WiFi, allowing you to
identify the correct WiFi network.
Channels
There are 13 channels available in the 2.4 GHz
frequency band. The channels recommended for
Europe are channels 1, 6 and 11. This ensures the
frequency bands of the channels do not overlap
and any connection problems are avoided.
There are 19 channels available in the 5 GHz
frequency band.
The channel selection default setting is
Automatic . The devolo Magic 2 WiFi
2-1
regularly
and automatically executes the channel selection
in this setting. In other words, if the last connected
station logs out, a search for a suitable channel is
carried out immediately. If no stations are
connected, the device automatically selects a
channel every 15 minutes.
It is worth noting that connected devices also have
to support the increased frequency band of 5 GHz.
From channel 52 onward you go into the radar
range. When accessing the device for the first time,
a radar detection phase (DFS) starts automatically,
during which time the devolo Magic 2 WiFi
2-1
cannot be accessed via WiFi. This can take up to 10
minutes.
In the Channel field, you can manually select a 2.4
GHz and a 5 GHz channel. If you are not sure which
wireless channels are used by nearby devices,
select the
Automatic option.
