CRADLEPOINT MBR1400 USER MANUAL Firmware ver. 3.4.1
Channel: (Shows if Random Channel is deselected.) The WiFi channel corresponds to a frequency the router uses to communicate with other devices. For 2.4 GHz, the range is 1 to 11, and 1, 6, and 11 do not overlap each other. If a WiMAX modem is attached, a higher number channel will increase the chance the router's WiFi and modem's WiMAX radios will conflict with each other, which may result in lower throughput. Select a channel from the dropdown list:
∙1 (2412 MHz)
∙2 (2417 MHz)
∙3 (2422 MHz)
∙4 (2427 MHz)
∙5 (2432 MHz)
∙6 (2437 MHz)
∙7 (2442 MHz)
∙8 (2447 MHz)
∙9 (2452 MHz)
∙10 (2457 MHz)
∙11 (2462 MHz)
For 5.0 GHz, the ranges are 36 to 64 and 149 to 165. These channels do not interfere with a WiMAX modem. If you choose to use 5.0 GHz, you should consider switching antennas. The default WiFi antennas are optimized for the
2.4GHz range.
∙36 (5180 MHz)
∙40 (5200 MHz)
∙44 (5220 MHz)
∙48 (5240 MHz)
∙149 (5745 MHz)
∙153 (5765 MHz)
∙157 (5785 MHz)
∙161 (5805 MHz)
∙165 (5825 MHz)
Client Timeout: If the access point is not able to communicate with the client it will disconnect it after this timeout (in seconds).
