devolo Magic 2 WiFi next
The Wi-Fi network mode field lets you define your
preferred setting by clicking the respective field:
b 2.4 GHz + 5 GHz – Both frequency bands are
used
b 2.4 GHz – Only the 2.4 GHz frequency band is
used
b 5 GHz – Only the 5 GHz frequency band is used
b Off – If desired, you can completely switch off
the Wi-Fi section of your
devolo Magic 2 WiFi next here.
Keep in mind that after saving this set-
ting, you will be disconnected from any
existing wireless connection to the
devolo Magic 2 WiFi next. In this case,
configure the device over Ethernet.
Network name
The network name (SSID) determines the name of
your wireless network. You can see this name
when logging onto the Wi-Fi, allowing you to
identify the correct Wi-Fi network.
Channels
There are 13 channels available in the 2.4 GHz
frequency band. The channels recommended for
Europe are channels 1, 6 and 11. This ensures the
frequency bands of the channels do not overlap
and any connection problems are avoided.
There are 19 channels available in the 5 GHz
frequency band.
The channel selection default setting is
Automatic.
The devolo Magic 2 WiFi next regularly and
automatically executes the channel selection in
this setting. In other words, if the last connected
station logs out, a search for a suitable channel is
carried out immediately. If no stations are
connected, the device automatically selects a
channel every 15 minutes.
It is worth noting that connected devices also have
to support the increased frequency band of 5 GHz.
From channel 52 onward you go into the radar
range. When accessing the device for the first time,
a radar detection phase (DFS) starts automatically,
during which time the devolo Magic 2 WiFi next
cannot be accessed via Wi-Fi. This can take up to 10
minutes.
In the Channel field, you can manually select a 2.4
GHz and a 5 GHz channel. If you are not sure which
wireless channels are used by nearby devices,
select the Automatic option.
