devices must be manually configured to use the router's SSID. This is enabled by
default.
AP Isolation: This option is disabled by default, and it is recommended that you
leave it disabled. When enabled, wireless clients connected via the primary SSID
and wireless clients connected via secondary SSID are isolated and cannot
communicate with each other. Enable this option only if you want to operate two
completely separate wireless LANs, each with their own separate SSID.
Channel: The channel currently used by the router. Select an effective channel, from
1 to 11, or AutoSelect.
WMM Capable: The Wi-Fi MultiMedia mode allows the router to provide a steady
bandwidth to high-priority data streams, such as Voice Over IP (VoIP), online gaming,
and video streaming, by decreasing bandwidth to low priority streams, such as data
downloads and email. This is enabled by default and should remain so to ensure
proper QoS (Quality of Service) operation.
APSD Capable: The Automatic Power Save Delivery option is used to put devices
into sleep/doze status when not active and is only used with WMM. This is most
useful for systems that consist almost entirely of Voice over IP (VoIP) applications.
Otherwise it is best to leave this option disabled.
Channel bandwidth: This option sets the appropriate bandwidth for the router and
depends on the type of wireless connections in use. If the clients include systems
using an 11n connection, select the 20/40M option. If the only clients are using 11b/g
connections, then choose the 20M setting.
Extension Channel: This setting determines the wireless channel on which your
router will broadcast and receive data. You want to make sure that the router is not
using the same channel as any other device in the same frequency range. If a
conflict occurs it can cause interference and lost data packets. In most cases, setting
this to Auto Select will ensure that no conflicts occur.
