Radio Interface NOTE: In normal mode, the access point provides a channel bandwidth of 20 MHz, and supports the maximum number of channels permitted by local regulations (e.g., 13 channels for the United States). In Turbo Mode, the channel bandwidth is increased to 40 MHz to support the increased data rate. However, this reduces the number of channels supported (e.g., 5 channels for the United States). NOTE: .Check your country's regulations to see if Turbo Mode is allowed. Super Mode - The Atheros proprietary Super A performance enhancements are supported by the access point. These enhancements include bursting, compression, and fast frames. Maximum throughput ranges between 40 to 60 Mbps for connections to Atheros-compatible clients. (Default: Disabled) Auto Channel Select - Enables the access point to automatically select an unoccupied radio channel. (Default: Enabled) NOTE: Check your country's regulations to see if Auto Channel can be disabled. Radio Channel - The radio channel that the access point uses to Normal Mode communicate with wireless clients. When multiple access points are deployed in the same area, set the channel on neighboring access points at least four channels apart to avoid interference with each other. For example, in the United States you can deploy up to four access points in the same area (e.g., channels 36, 56, 149, 165). Also note that the channel for wireless clients is automatically set to the same as that used by the access point to which it is linked. (Default: Channel 60 for normal mode, and channel 42 for Turbo mode) Antenna ID - Selects the antenna to be used by the access point; either the included diversity antennas or an optional Turbo Mode external antenna. The optional external antennas that are certified for use with the access point are listed in the drop-down menu. Selecting the correct antenna ID ensures that the access point's radio transmissions are within regulatory power limits for the country of operation. (Default: 3Com Integrated Antenna) 4-39
