Radio configuration
Radio frequency (RF) refers to electrical signals that can be transferred over the space to a long distance.
802.11b/g in the IEEE 802.11 standards operates at the 2.4 GHz band, 802.11a operates at the 5 GHz
band, and 802.11n operates at both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Radio frequency is allocated in
bands, each of which corresponds to a range of frequencies.
Configuring radio
1. Select Radio > Radio from the navigation tree.
2. Click the icon corresponding to the target radio to enter the page for configuring an AP radio.

If you change the selected AP's radio mode, the transmit power and working
channel of the AP are restored to the default of the corresponding mode.
Transmit Power
Maximum radio transmission power, which varies with country codes,
channels, AP models, radio modes and antenna types. If you adopt the
802.11n mode, the maximum transmit power of the radio also depends on the
bandwidth mode.
Channel
Specify the working channel of the radio, which varies with radio types and
country codes. The working channel list varies with device models.
auto: The working channel is automatically selected. If you select this mode,
the AP checks the channel quality in the WLAN network, and selects the
channel of the best quality as its working channel.
If you modify the working channel configuration, the transmit power is
automatically adjusted.
