NETGEAR ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point WG102 Reference Manual

1-12 Basic Installation and Configuration

v1.0, July 2008

Wireless Settings

To configure the wireless settings, click Wireless Settings in the Setup section of the WG102

Access Point main screen. The Wireless Settings screen appears, as shown below.

The Wireless Settings screen options are discussed below.

• Country/Region. This is the region where the WG102 can be used. It may not be legal to

operate the wireless features of the wireless access point in a region other than one of those

identified in this field. For products sold in the United States, the default country domain is

preset. Also, the channel is set to 11. For products sold outside the United States, unless a

country domain is selected, the channel cannot be changed.

• Turn Radio On. On by default, you can also turn off the radio to disable access through this

device. This can be helpful for configuration, network tuning, or troubleshooting activities.

• Operating Mode. Select the desired wireless operating mode. The options are:

– Auto (802.11g/802.11b): Both 802.11g and 802.11b wireless stations can be used. This is

the default.

– 802.11g Only: Only 802.11g wireless stations can be used.

– 802.11b Only: All 802.11b wireless stations can be used. 802.11g wireless stations can

still be used if they can operate in 802.11b mode.

• Channel. This sets which operating frequency is used. You should not need to change the

channel unless you notice interference problems, or are setting up the WG102 near another

access point.
