Turn Radio On Disable this option to disable wireless access for the selected mode. To disable all

wireless access through this access point, you must turn off the 802.11b/g/n, as well

as the 802.11a/n radios.

Wireless Mode Specify the wireless mode for the access points. Access points use the mode

enabled for the group, unless the access point does not support the group setting. In

that case, the access point uses the mode providing highest performance.

• The default setting is 802.11ng mode.

• If you specify 802.11b or 802.11/jointfilesconvert/34122/bg mode, both 802.11n- and 802.11g-compliant

devices can be used with this access point. However, 802.11b devices will not be

able to connect.

• If you select this option and other settings on this screen are disabled, then you

must select the Turn Radio On radio check box to enable available options on

this screen.

MCS Index/Data Rate Select the available transmit data rates of the wireless network.

Channel Width (11n only) Select the available channel width of the access point. A wider channel improves the

performance, but some legacy devices can operate only on either 20 MHz or 40

MHz.

Guard Interval (11n only) Select the value that will protect transmissions from interference. A shorter guard

interval improves performance, but some legacy devices can operate only with a long

guard interval.
