Reference Manual for the WG602 v2 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point • Channel/Frequency. This field identifies which operating frequency will be used. It should not be necessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems or setting up the WG602 v2 near another access point. See "Wireless Channels" on page B-2 for more information on wireless channels. - Access points use a fixed channel. You can select the channel used. This allows you to choose a channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channels are available. - If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between adjacent access points is 5 channels (for example, use channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11). - In "Infrastructure" mode, wireless stations normally scan all channels, looking for an access point. If more than one access point can be used, the one with the strongest signal is used. This can only happen when the various access points are using the same SSID. • Mode. The default is g and b. You can change the mode to g or b only. • Data Rate. Shows the available transmit data rate of the wireless network. The possible data rates supported are: 1 Mbps, 2 Mbps, 5.5 Mbps, 6 Mbps, 9 Mbps, 11 Mbps, 12 Mbps, 24 Mbps, 36 Mbps, 48 Mbps, 54 Mbps, and Best.The default is Best.
