ZoneFlex Indoor Access Point 9.8.1 User Guide, 800-70601-001 Rev C 128
Wireless Mode
On 802.11b/g APs:
The wireless mode options include the following:
• Auto-Select: Allows both 802.11g- and 802.11b-compliant
devices to connect to the network. This is the default setting.
• 2.4GHz 54 Mbps (For faster 802.11g devices only): Allows
only 802.11g-compliant devices to join the network.
• 2.4GHz 11Mbps (For slower 802.11b devices only): Allows
only 802.11b-compliant devices to join the network.
On dual radio 802.11n APs:
On dual radio 802.11n APs, the wireless mode is determined
by radio: For the 2.4GHz radio, the mode is set to 2.4GHz
(802.11b/g/n), while for the 5GHz radio, the mode is set to 5GHz
(802.11a/n).
On ZoneFlex 7321:
ZoneFlex 7321 is a single radio 802.11n AP capable of
operating in either 2.4 or 5GHz mode. Use this setting to select
2.4GHz or 5GHz mode. Refer to
“Band Selection on ZoneFlex
7321”
.
Channel This option lets you select the channel used by the network. You
can choose
SmartSelect, or choose one of a specific number
of channels. If you choose
SmartSelect, the AP automatically
selects the best channel (encountering the least interference) to
transmit the signal.
Channel Width (11n
APs only)
On 802.11n Access Points, the option to choose 40MHz
channel width provides (theoretically) double the data capacity
of a 20MHz channel. However, wider channel width means
fewer channels available, and more interference with other
wireless signals.
Country Code This option (if enabled) lets you select your country or region
code.
CAUTION! Selecting the incorrect country or region may result in violation of
applicable laws. If you purchased the Access Point in the United States, you do
not need to set the country code manually. Ruckus Wireless devices that are sold
in the US are preconfigured with the correct country code and this setting is non-
configurable.
