Changing the Wireless Channel

There are a number of operating channels from which you can choose— in the United Kingdom (and most of Europe), Australia, and most of Asia, there are 13. In other countries, there are other channel requirements.

Your Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for the country in which you reside. The channel can be changed if needed. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area, your network should be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other wireless networks.

Using the Wireless Mode Switch

This switch allows you to set the Router’s wireless modes. There are several modes.

Note: Some modes may require firmware updates to be enabled.

802.11b & 802.11g Mode

In this mode, the Router is compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g wireless clients simultaneously. This is the factory default mode and ensures successful operation with all Wi-Fi-compatible devices. If you have a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g clients in your network, we recommend setting the Router to g and b mode. This setting should only be changed if you have a specific reason to do so.

802.11g Mode

802.11g mode works with 802.11g clients only. This mode is recommended only if you want to prevent 802.11b clients from accessing your network. To switch modes, select the desired mode from the “Wireless Mode” drop-down box. Then, click “Apply Changes”.

802.11b Mode

We recommend you DO NOT use this mode unless you have a very specific reason to do so. This mode exists only to solve unique problems that may occur with some 802.11b client adapters and is NOT necessary for interoperability of 802.11g and 802.11b standards.

off Mode

This option will turn off the wireless functionality.

When to use 802.11b only Mode

In some cases, older 802.11b clients may not be compatible with 802.11g wireless technology. These adapters tend to be of inferior design and may use older drivers or technology. Switching to this mode can solve problems that sometimes occur with these clients. If you suspect that you are using a client adapter that falls into this category of adapters, first check with the adapter vendor to see if there is a driver update. If there is no driver update available, switching to b only mode may fix your problem. Please note that switching to 802.11b only mode will decrease 802.11g performance.
