AP-51xx Access Point Product Reference Guide

5-58

802.11 b/g mode

Specify

b only

,

g only

or

b and g

to define whether the 802.11b/

g radio transmits in the 2.4 Ghz band exclusively for 802.11b
(legacy) clients or transmits in the 2.4 Ghz band for 802.11g clients.
Selecting b and g enables the access point to transmit to both b and
g clients if legacy clients (802.11b) partially comprise the network.
Select accordingly based on the MU requirements of the network.
This parameter does not apply to access point 802.11a radios.

Set Rates

Click the

Set Rates

button to display a window for selecting

minimum and maximum data transmit rates for the radio. At least
one

Basic Rate

must be selected as a minimum transmit rate

value.

Supported Rates

define the data rate the radio defaults to

if a higher selected data rate cannot be maintained. Click

OK

to

implement the selected rates and return to the 802.11a or
802.11b/g radio configuration screen.
Clicking

Cancel

reverts the Set Rates screen to the last saved

configuration. Motorola recommends using the default rates
unless qualified to understand the performance risks of changing
them. The appearance of the Set Rates screen varies depending on
the 802.11a or 802.11b/g used, as the dates rates available to the
two radios are different.
