Description
Mode
available. For 5 GHz networks, the 11ac and 11a/n/ac protocols mixed are available.
-
11b/g mixed: It indicates that devices compliant with 802.11b or 802.11g protocol can connect
to the router.
-
11b/g/n mixed: It indicates that all devices working at 2.4 GHz and compliant with 802.11b,
802.11g, or 802.11n protocol can connect to the router.
-
11n: It indicates that devices working at 2.4 GHz and compliant with 802.11n can connect to
the router.
-
11ac: It indicates that devices complaint with 802.11ac protocol can connect to the router.
-
11a/n/ac mixed: It indicates that devices working at 5 GHz and compliant with 802.11a,
802.11n or 802.11ac protocol can connect to the router.
WiFi
Channel
It specifies the operating channel of a WiFi network.
By default, the WiFi channel is Auto, which indicates that the router selects a proper channel
based on the utilization rate it detected. But you can change it as required. A channel different
from nearby channels and with less interference are recommended to use because of better
wireless transmission efficiency. You can use a third-party tool to identify the channels different
from nearby channels and with less interference.
WiFi
Bandwidth
It specifies the bandwidth of the WiFi channel of a WiFi network. Change the default settings only
when necessary.
-
20: It indicates that the channel bandwidth of a router is to 20 MHz.
-
40: It indicates that the channel bandwidth of a router is 40 MHz.
-
20/40: It specifies that a router can switch its channel bandwidth between 20 MHz and 40 MHz
based on the ambient environment. This option is available only at 2.4 GHz.80: It indicates that
the channel bandwidth of a router is 80 MHz. This option is available only at 5 GHz.20/40/80: It
specifies that a router can switch its channel bandwidth among 20 MHz, 40 MHz, and 80 MHz
based on the ambient environment. This option is available only at 5 GHz.
6.4.2 Changing WiFi channel
Assume that the channel at 2.4 GHz WiFi network is required to change to channel 11, and 5 GHz WiFi network to
channel 157.
Procedures:
1. Click WiFi Settings > Channel & Bandwidth.
2. Change the channel of 2.4 GHz WiFi network to Channel 11.
3. Change the channel of 5 GHz WiFi network to Channel 157. (If there is no special requirement, retain
the other default settings.)
4. Click Save.
