Wireless Settings 59

6Select whether your Router will operate in 11b mode only, 11g mode only, 11n mode only, or mixed mode from the Wireless Mode drop-down menu. If your network contains 11b, 11g, and 11n clients, select the mixed mode. If your network contains just one type of clients only, select 11b only, or 11g only, or 11n only, depending on your wireless network environment. Note that selecting one type of wireless network only will improve the performance, however, this will prevent clients of other type from connecting to the Router.

7Bandwidth: select the bandwidth to use. Select 20/40 MHz when your wireless mode is 802.11n or 11n with 11b, 11 g mixed mode. If your wireless network is purely 11b only or 11g only, or 11b and 11g mixed, select 20 MHz.

8Select to turn on/off the Protected Mode function. As part of the 802.11g & 802.11n specification, Protected mode ensures proper operation of 802.11g & 802.11n clients and access points when there is heavy 802.11b traffic in the operating environment. When protected mode is ON, 802.11g & 802.11n scans for other wireless network traffic before it transmits data. Therefore, using this mode in environments with HEAVY 802.11b traffic or interference achieves best performance results. If you are in an environment with very little, or no other wireless network traffic, your best performance will be achieved with Protected mode OFF.
