11g/n mixed: Both 802.11g and 802.11n clients can communicate
with the 11n Router (up to 150 Mbps), but data transmission rates
may be slowed to compensate for 802.11g clients.
■
11b/g/n Mixed: All 802.11b/g/n clients can communicate with the
11n Router (up to 150 Mbps), but data transmission rates may be
slowed to compensate for 802.11b/g clients.
◆ Network Name (SSID) — The name of the wireless network service
provided by the 11n Router. Clients that want to connect to the network
must set their SSID to the same as that of the 11n Router. (Default:
“ALFA”; Range: 1-32 characters)
◆ Multiple SSID1 — One additional VAP interface supported on the
device. (Default: no name configured; Range: 1-32 characters)
◆ Broadcast Network Name (SSID) — By default, the 11n Router
always broadcasts the SSID in its beacon signal. Disabling the SSID
broadcast increases security of the network because wireless clients
need to already know the SSID before attempting to connect. When set
to disable, the Network Name SSID, and SSID1 are automatically set to
“Hide.” (Default: Enabled)
◆ AP Isolation — The 11n Router will isolate communincation between
all clients in order to protect them. Normally for users who are at
hotspots. (Default: Disabled)
◆ MBSSID AP Isolation — The 11n Router will isolate wireless clients
from different SSID.
◆ BSSID — The identifier (MAC address) of the 11n Router in the Basic
Service Set (BSS) network.
◆ Frequency (Channel) — The radio channel that the 11n Router uses
to communicate with wireless clients. When multiple access points are
deployed in the same area, set the channel on neighboring access
points at least five channels apart to avoid interference with each other.
For example, you can deploy up to three access points in the same area
using channels 1, 6, 11. Note that wireless clients automatically set the
channel to the same as that used by the 11n Router to which it is
linked. Selecting Auto Select enables the 11n Router to automatically
select an unoccupied radio channel. (Default: AutoSelect)
