Wireless Settings

OFDMA enables multiple users to transmit data simultaneously, and thus greatly

improves speed and efficiency. Noted that only when your clients also support

OFDMA, can you fully enjoy the benefits. It is disabled by default.

MU-MIMO (Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) enables the router to

simultaneously send data to multiple devices, significantly enhancing the network

efficiency.

1. Go to Advanced > Wireless > Wireless Settings.

2. Enable OFDMA only or enable OFDMA and MU-MIMO.

¾ To use the Smart Connect function:

The Smart Connect function lets you enjoy a more high-speed network by assigning

your devices to best wireless bands based on actual conditions to balance network

demands.

1. Go to Advanced > Wireless > Wireless Settings.

2. Enable Smart Connect.

3. Keep the default values or set a new SSID and password, and click SAVE. This

SSID and password will be applied for the 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless networks. If

you want to configure the wireless settings separately for each band, untick the

checkbox to disable this feature.

¾ To enable or disable the wireless function:

1. Go to Wireless or Advanced > Wireless > Wireless Settings.
