When multiple AirStations are used to communicate with the wireless LAN personal computers on the same
floor, the baud rate may be reduced. This is because the AirStations are using the same frequency to commu-
nicate simultaneously. If this happens, you can enable communications regardless of other LAN networks
by making settings to use different frequencies (wireless channels) in each LAN network (i.e., grouping).
Change the wireless channels and group the networks is done using the following procedure.

Setting Procedure

Multiple AirStation Groups

1

Refer to the "Displaying the AirStation Setting Screen" section in Chapter 2,
What is Next?, and display the AirStation setting screen.

2

Click the Custom Setup button.

3

"In the Wireless Channel field", select the
wireless channel setting for the AirStation, and
click the Set button.

4

"Settings Completed" will be displayed. Close the Web browser.

Using neighboring channels or other frequencies close to each other may result in

mutual interference. To make sure that there is no interference, set each channel at least
four channels apart. (Changing wireless channels may result in interference with other
wireless equipment.)
