Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface Table of Contents sections 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Changing the Wireless Channel There are a number of operating channels from which you can choose- in the United States, there are 11 and in the United Kingdom (and most of Europe), there are 13. In a small number of other countries, there are other channel requirements. Your Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for the country in which you reside. The channel can be changed if needed. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area, your network should be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other wireless networks. Using the Wireless Mode Switch This switch allows you to set the Router's wireless modes. There are several modes. Note: Some modes may require firmware updates to be enabled. 1) Off This mode will turn OFF the Router's access point, so no wireless devices can join the network. Turning off the wireless function of your Router is a great way to secure your network when you are away from home for a long period of time, or don't want to use the wireless feature of the Router at a certain time. 2) 802.11g only Setting the Router to this mode will allow only 802.11g-compliant devices to join the network, keeping out any slower 802.11b devices. 3) 802.11b+g Setting the Router to this mode will allow 802.11b- and 802.11g-compliant devices to join the network.
