your network:
B, G, N, B/G or B/G/N Mixed.
If you aren’t sure which type(s) of clients will
access the wireless networks, it’s recommended to choose
B/G/N Mixed
for best performance.
Channel Mode
: By default, the
Channel Mode
is set to 20/40MHZ. The larger the channel, the
better the transmission quality and speed.
Channel

best performance for the wireless network. To select a channel manually, uncheck the
Auto
