DESCRIPTION
Wireless
Wireless
Select
Keep 2.4G and 5G wireless name the same
to give the same SSID and password to both
2.4G and 5G wireless networks. The SSID and password of the 2.4G wireless network will be used.
Wireless Network Setup
Band
This shows the wireless band that this radio profile is using.
2.4GHz
is the frequency used by IEEE
802.11b/g/n wireless clients while
5GHz
is used by IEEE 802.11a/ac wireless clients.
Wireless
You can
Enable
or
Disable
the wireless LAN in this field.
Channel
Use
Auto
to have the VMG automatically determine a channel to use.
Bandwidth
Select whether the VMG uses a wireless channel width of
20MHz
,
40MHz
or
80MHz
.
A standard 20MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 150Mbps whereas a 40MHz channel
uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300 Mbps.
40MHz (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.
An 80MHz channel groups
adjacent 40MHz channels into pairs to increase bandwidth even
higher.
Select
20MHz
if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your
neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.
Control
Sideband
This is available for some regions when you select a specific channel and set the Bandwidth field
to
40MHz
. Set whether the control channel (set in the
Channel
field) should be in the
Lower
or
Upper
range of channel bands.
Wireless Network Settings
Wireless
Network Name
The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the service set with which a wireless device is associated.
Wireless devices associating to the access point (AP) must have the same SSID.
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 English keyboard characters) for the wireless LAN.
Max Clients
Specify the maximum number of clients that can connect to this network at the same time.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station cannot obtain
the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool.
Multicast
Forwarding
Select this check box to allow the VMG to convert wireless multicast traffic into wireless unicast
traffic.
Max. Upstream
Bandwidth
Specify the maximum rate for upstream wireless traffic to the WAN from this WLAN in kilobits per
second (Kbps).
Max.
Downstream
Bandwidth
Specify the maximum rate for downstream wireless traffic to this WLAN from the WAN in kilobits
per second (Kbps).
BSSID
This shows the MAC address of the wireless interface on the VMG when wireless LAN is enabled.
Security Level
Security Mode
Select
More Secure (WPA(2)-PSK)
to add security on this wireless network. The wireless clients
which want to associate to this network must have same wireless security settings as the VMG.
When you select to use a security, additional options appears on this screen.
Or you can select
No Security
to allow any client to associate this network without any data
encryption or authentication.
See the following sections for more details about this field.
