NOTE:
KBC and MicroTek Electronics merged in 2008. The following
screen shots show the existing MicroTek interface as present in
the WES series.
FAQ: My Client is set to 5745 (or other) MHz but the interface
shows a different frequency. Is it configured incorrectly?
The Client cycles through all of the various frequencies (though it is
still using the frequency selected) in order to associate with the
appropriate Host AP based on actual frequency, signal rate and RSSI
(see page 12). This is normal, the Client is actually on the frequency
it was programmed to use. Refer to “Rotary Switch Position” and
match that channel to the frequency list shown on page 3.
