Channel
Number
The
channel
number
is
a
means
of
assigning
frequency
that
device
uses
it
to
transmit/receive
data.
Before
you
setting
the
channel
in
2.4GHz
band,
you
had
better
to
use
the
optimal
channel
function
to
detect
the
environment’s
radio
signal
and
choose
the
best
one
for
using.
`
Optimal
channel
When
the
device
runs
on
2.4GHz
band,
you
can
use
the
“optimal
channel”
to
figure
out
which
channel
is
the
best
one
for
using.
Clicking
on
the
button
“
Select
the
optimal
channel”
,
a
popup
screen
will
display
the
choices.
After
enter
this
function,
the
WH-5000A
detects
the
environment’s radio
signal
at
each
channel
and
show
them
at
this screen.
This
action
does
not
select
the
channel
for
you but
shows
you
what
will
most
probably
be
channel selected
if
you
leave
the
following
dropdown
menu
at Yes.
`
Auto
When
channel
number
set
up
as
Auto,
the
WH-5000A
will
select
the
optimal
channel
at
boot
up
`
802.11b,
802.11g
and
802.11b/g
Mixed
mode
There
are
11
(13
for
ETSI)
channel
numbers
that
may
be
assigned.
Because
the
802.11b
signal
bandwidth
is
22MHz,
there
are
3
non-overlapping
channels
for
802.11b
at
2.4GHz
ISM
band.
To
reduce
the interference
problem,
you
may
be
able
to
establish
up
to
3
wireless
networks
at
the
same
area.
If
you
need establish
3
wireless
networks,
you
may
assign
channel
number
1
to
the
first
wireless
network.
Then
the channel
6
will
be
better
for
second
wireless
networks
and
channel
11
will
be
the
third
one.
