Radio Interface

set to the same as that used by the access point to which it is linked. (Range: 1-11; Default: 1)

Auto Channel Select – Enables the access point to automatically select an unoccupied radio channel. (Default: Enabled)

SSID Broadcast – The SSID broadcast can be disabled to prevent access to clients without a pre-configured SSID. When disabled, the access point will not include its SSID in beacon messages. Nor will it respond to probe requests from clients that do not include the correct SSID. (Default: Enabled)

Select Antenna Mode – Specifies whether the antenna used will be automatically selected based on best signal reception (i.e., Diversity mode), or will be fixed to use an optional high-gain antenna attached to the right side of the access point. Use the SMC2555W-JMPRCBL jumper cable to connect the high-gain antenna. (Default: Diversity)

Working Mode – The access point can be configured to support both 802.11b and 802.11g clients simultaneously, 802.11b clients only, or 802.11g clients only. (Default: 802.11b and 802.11g)

Maximum Supported Rate – The maximum data rate at which a client can connect to the access point. The maximum transmission distance is affected by the data rate. The lower the data rate, the longer the transmission distance. (Default: 54 Mbps)

For a description of the remaining configuration items, see “Radio Settings (802.11a)” on page 5-41.
