for 802.11b or 802.11g are from 1 to 11 for the U.S. (which is the default setting) and
from 1 to 13 for Europe. For automatic channel selection, select Auto. For more
information about operating frequencies, see the guidelines about channels below

Tx Output Power This pull-down menu lets you to specify the transmission power. The available
options are from 27 dBm to 18 dBm. By default, the Tx Output Power is 27 dBm.
Note: Make sure that you comply with the regulatory requirements for total radio
frequency (RF) output power in your country.
You should not need to change the operating frequency (channel) unless you notice
interference problems, or are setting up the wireless access point near another wireless
access point. Observe the following guidelines:
Wireless access points use a fixed channel. You can select a channel that provides
the least interference and best performance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channels
are available.
If using multiple wireless access points, it is better if adjacent wireless access points
use different channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing
between adjacent wireless access points is five channels (for example, use channels
1 and 6, or 6 and 11).
In “infrastructure” mode, wireless stations normally scan all channels, looking for a
wireless access point. If more than one wireless access point can be used, the one
with the strongest signal is used. This can happen only when the wireless access
points use the same SSID. The WGAP150 wireless access point functions in
“infrastructure” mode by default.
For more information about wireless channels, see the online document that you can
access from “Wireless Networking Basics” in Appendix B.
