2.4.4. Configure IEEE 802.11 Settings 

The Network Manager utility allows the user to configure IEEE 802.11n-related communication set-
tings,  including 

Regulatory  domain

, 

Channel  number

,  and 

Network  name  (SSID)

  of  the  Access 

Point.  The  number  of  available  RF  channels  depends  on  local  regulations;  therefore  you  have  to 
choose  an  appropriate regulatory  domain  to  comply  with local regulations. 

The  SSID  of  a wireless 

client  computer  and  the  SSID  of  the  Access  Point  must  be  identical  for  them  to  communicate 
with each other. 

NOTE:

    Put a check in the 

Auto Channel

 

Selection

 checkbox to allow the 

Frequency Channel

 of 

the Access Point to be automatically set.
