Basic Settings
The Basic Setting page allows you to enable the wireless interface, select which
radio mode to use, choose the transmit frequency and configure SSIDs.
Click on "Wireless Settings," followed by "Basic Setting."
Note: There are several variables to consider when selecting a radio mode that make it
fully functional. Simply selecting the mode you want is not enough to ensure full
compatibility for that mode. Information on these variables may be found in the
Advanced Setting section.
Figure 5-17. Basic Radio Settings
• WLAN – Enables the communication for the VAP wireless interface.
(Default: Enabled)
• WLAN Mode – Defines the radio mode for the VAP interface.
(Default: 802.11b/g/n Mixed)
Note: Enabling the wireless AP/Router to communicate with 802.11b/g clients in both
802.11b/g/n Mixed and 802.11n modes also requires that HT Operation in the
Advanced Settings menu be set to Mixed. Setting HT Operation to Green Field is
exclusive for 802.11n client communication only and prevents 802.11 b/g
communication.
- 802.11b/g/n Mixed: All 802.11b/g/n
clients can communicate with the
wireless AP/Router (up to 300 Mbps),
but data transmission rates may be
slowed to compensate for 802.11b/g
clients.
