5.2.3 Access Point Mode (2.4 GHz)

Radio

Select the appropriate radio button to enable or disable the EOA7530’s wireless

 

functions.

 

 

Enable SSID#

The EOA7530 supports four SSIDs. Each SSID can be configured to use a different

 

VLAN tag.

 

 

ESSID

ESSID is the name of your WLAN. In an area where more than one WLAN is present,

 

using a different ESSID allows you to separate the traffic. Any device you want to

 

participate in a particular WLAN must use the same ESSID. The default ESSID is

 

EnGenius. After specifying each E SSID, specify the VLAN ID for each ESSID.

 

 

2.4G Wireless Settings

 

 

 

Band

Select the IEEE 802.11 standard operating in your network environment.

 

 

Channel

You should not need to change the wireless channel unless you notice interference

 

or are setting up the EOA7530 near another Access Point.

 

 

Data Rate

Shows the available transmit data rate of the WLAN. The data rate affects

 

throughput. If you select a low data rate value, for example, the throughput is

 

reduced but the transmission distance increases.

 

 

Auto Channel

By default, this option is disabled. If you click Enable, the EOA7530 searches all valid

 

channels, then decides which channel is “cleanest” for transmissions and change to

 

that channel automatically.

 

 

Apply / Cancel

Click Apply to apply the changes or Cancel to discard your changes and return to the

 

previous settings.

 

 

Note: If you do not have experience setting data rates, do not change the default setting.
