802.11 Mode
: Choose the setting that corresponds to the type of wireless clients connected to your
network:
B, G, N, B/G or B/G/N
(on the 2.4GHz)
or
A, N or A/N
(on the 5GHz). If you aren’t sure which
type(s) of clients will access the wireless networks, it’s recommended to choose
B/G/N Mixed
(on the
2.4GHz) or
A/N Mixed
(on the 5GHz) for best performance.
NOTE
: When set to a mixed mode ALL devices connected to the wireless will use the mode that is
compatible for ALL devices. Example – If you have the 2.4GHz Wireless set to B/G/N Mixed and a devices
connects using G, all devices will be connected at G speed.
Channel Mode
: By default, the “
Channel Mode”
is set to 20/40MHZ (when using N). Selecting the 40MHz
channel mode will allow for a greater overall throughput of data but it will also increase the size of the
channel.
NOTE
: When using 20MHz channel width on the 2.4GHz radio, channel 6 would bleed into channels 4, 5, 7
and 8 giving you three non-overlapping channels (1, 6 and 11). When using 40MHz channel width on the
2.4GHz radio, channel 6 would bleed into channels 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10 giving you only one channel
without overlap.
Channel
: In the default setting (
Auto
), the W7x automatically associates to the channel with best
performance for the wireless network. To select a channel manually, uncheck the “
Auto”
box and select a
channel from the drop-down list. The channel options on the list depend on the selected country’s
regulations.
Detect Best Channel:
Click “
Scan”
to perform an automatic site
survey. A new window will open and
display the site survey utility. The W7x will scan the frequency for devices currently broadcasting their
SSID, and
then will
display
them in the table.
Current Profiles
: You can configure up to eight wireless profiles, per band, each with its own VLAN ID. To
modify and activate a profile check “
Enable”
and then click “
Edit”
to configure the settings.
SSID
: The SSID is the name associated with the W7x WIFI network. By default, the SSID is broadcast on the
network for easy association by clients. An SSID cannot exceed 32 characters.
VLAN ID
: Type the VLAN ID associated with this profile if the SSID will be broadcasting a VLAN other than
1.
802.1Q Tagging
: Check if you are using any VLAN other than 1 on this SSID.
