If you are operating in an 802.11h enabled domain, then the channel selection of the BSS will always be "Auto". Even if another channel has been has been configured, this will be ignored and auto- channel selection will occur.

When 802.11h is enabled, the initial boot-up time will increase by a minimum of sixty seconds. This is the minimum time required to scan the selected channel for radar interference.

Setting up WDS links may be difficult when 802.11h is operational. This is because the operating channels of the two APs on the WDS link may keep changing depending on channel usage and radar interference. WDS will only work if both the APs operate on the same channel. For more information on WDS, see “Configuring the Wireless Distribution System (WDS)”.

Configuring the Radio Interface

The radio interface allows you to set the radio Channel and 802.11 mode as described below.

Note: You must configure these radio interface settings for both Radio Interface One and Radio Interface Two.

Field

 

Description

MAC

 

Indicates the Media Access Control (MAC) addresses for the interface.

Addresses

 

The MAC addresses for Radio Interface One (Internal/Guest) and Radio Interface

 

 

 

 

Two (Internal/Guest) are shown.

 

 

A MAC address is a permanent, unique hardware address for any device that

 

 

represents an interface to the network. The MAC address is assigned by the

 

 

manufacturer. You cannot change the MAC address. It is provided here for

 

 

informational purposes as a unique identifier for an interface.

 

 

 

Mode

 

The Mode defines the Physical Layer (PHY) standard being used by the radio.

 

 

The AT-TQ2403 is dual band access point with two radios. Select one of these modes:

 

 

a mode for each Radio Interface.

 

 

For Radio Interface 1

 

 

IEEE 802.11a

 

 

Atheros Turbo 5G GHz

 

 

Atheros Dynamic Turbo 5G GHz

 

 

For Radio Interface 2

 

 

IEEE 802.11b

 

 

IEEE 802.11g

 

 

Atheros Turbo 2.4 GHz

 

 

Atheros Dynamic Turbo 2.4 GHz

 

 

Select an IEEE 802.11 mode for each of the two radio interfaces.

 

 

Note: The turbo function depends on Country Domain and Product model. Not all

 

 

country and model support the turbo function.
