Radio Interface
TheIEEE802.11aand802.11b/ginterfacesincludeconfigurationoptionsforradiosignal
characteristics,VirtualAPs(VAPs),andwirelesssecurityfeatures.
Theconfigurationoptionsforbothradiointerfacesarenearlyidentical,andarebothcoveredin
thissectionofthemanual.
TheRadioSettingssectionincludesoptionsfortheradiocharacteristicsof

Radio Signal Characteristics
Theaccesspointcanoperateinseveraldifferentradiomodes,IEEE802.11aonly,802.11b only,
802.11gonly,802.11b/gonly,oramixed802.11a/b/gmode.802.11gisbackwardcompatiblewith
802.11b.
TheIEEE802.11ainterfaceoperateswithinthe5GHzband,atupto54Mbpsinnormalmode,or
upto
108MbpsinTurbomode.
