Operating Band
Select the operating band defined under IEEE 802.11 standard.
Operating Band
Legacy 11 B only
This is the oldest standard for radio networks. If your WLAN-adapter supports newer stand-
ards like 802.11g, then you should use them instead.
 Max. speed: up to 11Mbit/s
 Frequency: 2.4 GHz
 Bandwidth: 22 MHz
 Range: Indoor -> 35m / Outdoor -> 120m
Legacy 11 G only
This WLAN-standard is used most at the present. It ensures a broad compatibility to a variety
of WLAN-devices.
 Max. speed: max. 54Mbit/s
 Frequency: 2.4 GHz
 Bandwidth: 20 MHz
 Range: Indoor -> 38m / Outdoor -> 140m
11 N only
This standard ensures high transmission speeds and ranges.
Modulation methods and antenna techniques like MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) are
using the available frequency band more effectively then older standards.
 Max. speed: max. 54 – 600 Mbit/s
 Frequency: 2.4 / 5 GHz
 Bandwidth: at 2.4GHz -> 20MHz
at 5GHz -> 40MHz
 Range: Indoor -> 70m / Outdoor -> 250m
11GN mixed
The standards 802.11 g and 802.11 n are mixed.
11BGN mixed
The standards 802.11 b, 802.11 g and 802.11 n are mixed.
legacy 11 b/g mixed
The standards 802.11 g and 802.11 b are mixed.
Channel
Auto: The channel is selected automatically.
1-13: Select a Channel between 1 and 13.

RTS Threshold
Request-to-send:
The RTS is a handshake-protocol for avoidance of data collision. If the device recognizes a
slower device, then he asks before sending the packet. This process can slow down the data
rate. A value of 500 is recommended.
Frag Threshold
The fragmentation affects the data rate. You can specify the size of the packets here. Do not
select a too high value.
WMM Capable
Active WMM: WMM certification active
Inactive WMM: WMM certification inactive
