Mode
This setting determines the type of wireless devices that can connect to your
network.
Recommended options:
● 802.11 G – Choose only if you’re certain that all of the WiFi devices
used with your hotspot support 802.11 G. This option ensures faster
WiFi speeds.
● 802.11 B/G/N or 802.11 B/G – Choose if you’re not sure which modes
the WiFi devices used with your hotspot support.
Note: If you change this value to 802.11 B/G/N and the specified WiFi security
Encryption type is not supported by this value, the security Encryption type may
change to WPA/WPA2 Personal.
WiFi Channel
This is the active channel of the WiFi access point. If your network is having
performance issues (possibly caused by other WiFi networks in the vicinity
using the same channel), try a different WiFi channel. See
Change the WiFi
Channel.
RTS Threshold
This setting specifies the smallest packet size, in bytes, for which RTS/CTS
(Request to Send/Clear to Send) handshaking is used. The recommended
value is 2347. Change this value only if you’re experiencing inconsistent data
