39 Network configuration
devolo WiFi pro 1750e
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
WiFi pro 1750e cannot be accessed via Wi-Fi.
Mode
In the Mode field, select the desired Wi-Fi communi-
cation standard.
Channel
There are 13 channels available in the 5 GHz frequency
band. The recommended channel selection default set-
ting is Automatic. The WiFi pro 1750e regularly and
automatically selects the channels in this setting. In
other words, if the last connected station logs out, a
search for a suitable channel is carried out immedi-
ately. If no stations are connected, the device automa-
tically selects a channel every 15 minutes.
Channel width
Optimal use of the available frequency band requires
selecting the appropriate channel width.
Max. transmitting power
In this section, you can adjust the Wi-Fi transmission
level to your needs. I.e. if you require a large range,
select High....
Data rates
Only change the preconfigured data rates if
you understand the concept behind them.
Setting the radio data rates entails selecting the data
rates used by the Wi-Fi access point for transmission.
The Wi-Fi access point sends all packets with the lar-
gest possible basic rate. If the distance between the
Wi-Fi access point and the Wi-Fi stations is too large
for this data rate or faults and interference occur, pac-
kets are sent with the next smallest basic rate. At least
one basic rate must be selected. Unicast packets can
also be sent with the supported data rates which are
not basic rates.
You can optimise the Wi-Fi access point either for ma-
ximum range or for the best performance by varying
the data rates. The maximum range is achieved when
the basic rate is set only to 1 Mbps, all data rates, ho-
wever, are supported.
You should select multiple data rates as basic rates,
e.g. 6, 12 or 24 Mbps (recommended) so that multicast
packets are sent at 24 Mbps, if possible.
Furthermore, the smallest selected basic rate is used
for emitting the SSID (beacon). The larger this rate is,
the more efficient the Wi-Fi is being used. Note that
this can reduce the maximum range.
