Although the wireless b/g operates in the 2. 4GHz frequency, it will allow the use of other 2. 4GHz client devices (Wireless n/g @ 54Mbps) to connect and access at the same time. o 802. 11b/g/n mixed mode (2. 4GHz) - This wireless mode works in the 2. 4GHz frequency range and will only allow the use of wireless g client devices to connect and access point, 54Mbps for wireless g and up to 300Mbps* for wireless n and share access at the same time. Although the wireless b/g/n operates in the same 2. 4GHz frequency, it will allow the use of other 2. 4GHz client devices (Wireless b/g/n) to connect and access at the same time. Frequency (Channel): To manually set the channel on which the router will broadcast, uncheck Auto Channel, then click the drop-down list and select the desired Channel for wireless communication. The goal is to select the Channel that is least used by neighboring wireless networks. Extension channel: When 20/40 channel bandwidth has been chosen, you should select extension channel to get higher throughput. Channel Mode: Four levels are available: 5MHz, 10MHz, 20MHz and 40MHz. The last one can enhance data throughput, but it takes more bandwidth, thus it might cause potential interference. Antenna: By default, IEEE 802. 11b/g/n Wireless CPE uses its built-in antenna for directional transmission; however, if you prefer to use an external antenna for your case-dependent applications, you can switch from “Internal (8 dBi)” to” External (N-Type)”. When External (N-Type) is selected, an Antenna Gain bar will appear to allow you specify the gain of the external antenna. The antenna gain calculates the TX power back off needed to remain in compliance with regulations. Please refer to External Antenna installation on page 49. o You are able to choose “External (N-Type)” only when you have well done installing the external antenna; otherwise, it might damage IEEE 802. 11b/g/n Wireless CPE itself. o The maximum output power will vary depending on the country selected in order to comply with the local regulation. o The output power here is counted from the RF single chain only not including the 8dBi internal antenna. Maximum Output power: Specify the signal transmission power. The higher the output power is, the wider the signal can cover, but the power consumption will be greater accordingly. Data Rate: Usually “Auto” is preferred. Under this rate, the IEEE 802. 11b/g/n Wireless CPE will automatically select the highest available rate to transmit. In TEW-715APO some cases, however, like where there is no great demand for speed, you can have a relatively-low transmit rate for compromise of a long distance. • Extension Channel Protection: This is to avoid conflict with other wireless network and boost the ability of your device to catch all 802. 11g transmissions.
