Chapter 4 Configuring Wireless Settings

802.11b/g Mode

Selecting 802.11b/g Mode in the Wireless Advanced Settings screen generates the “802.11b/g Mode” screen.

Click on the down arrow next to the drop- down menu and select the desired option. We recommend using the “Mixed” mode (the default option), which enables both 802.11b and 802.11g wireless clients to join the network.

When finished with this screen, click Apply to save all changes.
