20/40 MHz coexistence to increase the WiFi speed on the 2.4 GHz radio to the maximum
supported speed for the WiFi mode.
20/40 MHz coexistence does not apply to the 5 GHz radio.
To enable or disable 20/40 MHz coexistence for the 2.4 GHz radio:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display a login window but displays a security warning and
does not let you proceed, see Resolve a browser security warning on page 27.
3. Enter the admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings.
The Advanced Wireless Settings page displays.
5.
Select or clear the Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence check box.
Selecting this check box enables 20/40 MHz coexistence and clearing this check
box enables 20/40 MHz coexistence.
By default, 20/40 MHz coexistence is enabled and the check box is selected.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved. The 2.4 GHz radio restarts and WiFi clients might need to
reconnect.
Enable or disable Wi-Fi multimedia for a radio
Wi-Fi multimedia (WMM) prioritizes WiFi voice and video traffic over the WiFi link. By
default, WMM is enabled for all radios on the router.
WMM prioritizes WiFi data packets from different applications based on four access
categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the
benefits of WMM, WMM must be enabled for both the application and the client running
that application. Legacy applications that do not support WMM and applications that
do not require WMM are assigned to the best effort category, which receives a lower
priority than voice and video.
For each 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio individually, you can enable or disable WMM, which
then applies too all WiFi networks that use the radio.
