LABEL DESCRIPTION
Wireless Network Setup
Wireless You can Enable or Disable the wireless LAN in this field.
Channel Set the channel depending on your particular region.
Select a channel or use Auto to have the Zyxel Device automatically determine a
channel to use. If you are having problems with wireless interference, changing the
channel may help. Try to use a channel that is as many channels away from any
channels used by neighboring APs as possible. The channel number which the Zyxel
Device is currently using then displays next to this field.
more.../less Click more... to show more information. Click less to hide them.
Bandwidth Select whether the Zyxel Device uses a wireless channel width of 20MHz or 40MHz.
A standard 20MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 150Mbps whereas a 40MHz
channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300 Mbps.
40MHz (channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to
increase throughput. The wireless clients must also support 40 MHz. It is often better to
use the 20 MHz setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal.
Select 20MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your
neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.
Control
Sideband
This is available for some regions when you select a specific channel and set the
Bandwidth field to 40MHz. Set whether the control channel (set in the Channel field)
should be in the Lower or Upper range of channel bands.
