About the Radios

The AT-WA7500 and AT-WA7501 access products may contain one or two radios. You can use access points that contain two different types of radios to support two different types of wireless networks, such as legacy networks. You can use access points with two of the same type of radios as WAPs, as point-to-multipoint bridges, to increase throughput in a busy network, or to provide redundancy.

*The 802.11g radio is sometimes referred to as the 802.11b/g because it can be configured to communicate with any 802.11b and 802.11g radios that have the same SSID and security settings.

The next sections explain how to configure the radios that are in your access point. Only the radios actually installed in your access point appear in the configuration menus.
