• Wireless Mode: If all of the wireless devices you want to connect with this Access
Point can connect in the same transmission mode, you can improve performance
slightly by choosing the appropriate mode. If you have some devices that use a
different transmission mode, choose the appropriate mode.
2.4GHz Wireless
o 2.4GHz B/G/N mixed: Select this mode for the best compatibility. This mode
allows older 802.11b and 802.11g wireless devices to connect to the access point
in addition to newer 802.11n devices.
o 2.4GHz 802.11 g/n/ax mixed: This mode allows devices to connect to the access
point using the older and slower 802.11g, 802.11n or the newer and faster
802.11ax technology.
o 2.4GHz 802.11 g/n mixed: This mode allows devices to connect to the access
point using the older and slower 802.11g, or the newer 802.11n technology.
o 2.4GHz B/G mixed: This mode only allows devices to connect to the access point
using older and slow 802.11b or 802.11g technology and it thereby reduces the
router’s maximum speed to 54Mbps (typically not recommended).
o G only: This mode only allows devices to connect to the access point using older
and slower 802.11g technology (typically not recommended).
o B only: This mode only allows devices to connect to the access point using older
and slower 802.11b technology (typically not recommended).
Note: Please check the specifications on your wireless devices for the highest
wireless capability supported first before applying these settings. If you are
unsure, it is recommended that you keep the default setting (B/G/N mixed) for the
best compatibility.
5GHz Wireless
o A only: This mode only allows devices to connect to the access point using older
and slower 802.11a technology (typically not recommended).
o A/N mixed: This mode only allows devices to connect to the access point using
older and slower 802.11a or 802.11n technology and it thereby reduces the
access point’s maximum speed to 54Mbps (typically not recommended).
o N/AC mixed: Select this mode for the best compatibility. This mode allows older
802.11a wireless devices to connect to the access point in addition to newer
802.11ac devices.
