Wireless Setup
Wireless LAN
Select to enable or disable the wireless LAN. This is turned on by default.
Name (SSID)
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless client is associated.
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable characters found on a typical English language
keyboard) for the wireless LAN.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a wireless client cannot
obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool.
Channel
Selection
Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.
Select a channel from the drop-down list box. The options vary depending on the frequency
band and the country you are in.
This option is only available if
Auto C ha nne l Se le c tio n
is disabled.
Auto Channel
Selection
Select the check box to have the PLA automatically scan for and select a channel which is not
used by another device.
Operating
Channel
This displays the channel the PLA is currently using.
Channel Width
Select the wireless channel width used by PLA.
A standard 20 MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 150Mbps whereas a 40 MHz channel
uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300Mbps.
Because not all devices support 40 MHz channels, select
Auto 20/ 40 MHz
to allow the PLA to
adjust the channel bandwidth automatically.
40 MHz
(channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to increase
throughput. The wireless clients must also support
40 MHz
. It is often better to use the 20 MHz
setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal.
Select
20 MHz
if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your
neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.
