2.4.3 Step 2: Configure IEEE 802.11 Settings
Fig. 6. IEEE 802.11b communication settings.
Go to the IEEE 802.11, Communication section to configure IEEE 802.11b-related communication
settings, including Regulatory Domain, Channel Number, and Network Name (SSID).
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 advanced AP must be identical for them to communicate with each other.
When you are finished, click Save at the bottom of this page, and then you are brought back to the start
page.
NOTE: The factory default setting for the Regulatory Domain is “Spain”. This is because in Spain only
channels 10 and 11 are authorised for use. Thus an AP “out of the box” will only transmit on channels 10
and 11 and this ensures compliance with international regulations. When the default Regulatory domain
is changed the AP will use an expanded set of channels.
