Overlap AP
Overlapping channels
Note
This WBM page is only available in access point mode.
For optimum data throughput, it is important that the set wireless channel is not used by
other access points. In the 2.4 GHz band (802.11b or 802.11g), there is overlapping of the
channels so that an access point occupies not only the set channel but also the two or three
adjacent channels. You should therefore make sure that there is adequate channel spacing
to neighboring access points.
This WBM page shows all access points that are visible on the set or adjacent channels (at
2.4 GHz). If entries exist here, the maximum data throughput of the access point and the
availability of the communication link to the access point is potentially impaired.
Table 1 has the following columns:
●
Shows the available WLAN interfaces.
●
Specify the life time of the entries in the list. If an access point is inactive for longer than
the set time, it is removed from the list.
Note
Changing the aging time
The aging time is a WLAN s
etting. For this reason, if a change is made, the WLAN
connection is briefly interrupted to accept the new value.
