Manage 802.11ax and enable or disable
OFDMA for a radio
If 802.11ax (11AX) WiFi is enabled (which it is by default), you can enable Orthogonal
Frequency-Division Multiple-Access (OFDMA) for each radio band independently. By
default, OFDMA is disabled on both radio bands, even when 11AX WiFi is enabled.
OFDMA allows data transmission signals to be split into smaller signals. The AP sends
these small signals directly to individual devices in your network. Because multiple
devices can be served in the same transmission window, the AP does not need to wait
for WiFi access for every packet. This method of communication increases network
speed and efficiency.
Note the following about OFDMA:
•
Enable OFDMA if your network includes many Internet of things (IoT) devices.
•
After you enable OFDMA, if you notice that some of your devices do not function
as expected, disable OFDMA to see if the devices function fine.
•
If your network includes many older devices, you might want to keep OFDMA
disabled.
We recommend that you keep 11AX enabled.
To manage 11AX for both radios and enable or disable OFDMA for an individual
radio:
1.
Connect your computer or mobile device to the AP in one of the following ways
•
Connect directly to the AP’s WiFi network or LAN. (Applies to the AP in either
operation mode.)
•
Connect to the same network that the AP is connected to. (Applies only if the AP
is operating in AP mode.)
2.
Launch a web browser and enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
Instead, if you are connected to same network as the AP, enter the LAN IP address
that is assigned to the AP. For information about finding the IP address, see Find the
IP address of the AP when you cannot use routerlogin.net on page 32.
A login window displays.
