CRADLEPOINT MBR1400| USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.4.1

6.7.4 WiFi Settings (Advanced)

When you select the Wireless (WiFi) Networks

Settings tab in the Local Network Interfaces section,

you have several additional options for configuring your

wireless LANs under the WiFi Settings heading.

WiFi band: Select the range of frequencies the router

will use. The MBR1400 can operate in either the 2.4 GHz

or the 5.0 GHz ranges. (Default: 2.4 GHz. The included

WiFi antennas are 2.4 GHz. 5 GHz antennas are

available as an accessory.)

Channel Selection Method: This controls how a WiFi

channel is selected.

 User Selection. Manually set the channel.

 Random Selection. The router randomly sets the

channel.

 Smart Selection (Default). Scans to determine

the lowest interference WiFi channel.

Channel Selection Schedule: When using the "Smart"

channel selection, this controls whether the router will

periodically rescan for a better channel and change to it.

Select from ―Once,‖ ―Daily,‖ ―Weekly,‖ or ―Monthly.‖ Note

that there may be a momentary WiFi disconnection while

the channel changes.

Optimize WiFi/WiMAX coexistence: (Shows if Smart Selection or Random Selection is chosen and the WiFi Band is

2.4 GHz.) Setting this will lessen any possible conflict with WiFi in the 2.4 GHz band and an attached WiMAX modem. If a

WiMAX modem is attached to the router when the WiFi is enabled, the WiFi channel and transmit power will be set to

levels that optimize the performance of the WiMAX modem. If no WiMAX modem is attached, then default channel and

power settings will be used even if this is selected.
