Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 Use the following guidelines: - A wider channel improves the performance (no or minimal interference and better data rates). - The 802.11n specification allows a 40 MHz-wide channel in addition to the legacy 20 MHz channel that is available with other modes. - The 802.11ac specification allows an 80 MHz-wide channel in addition to the 20 MHz and 40 MHz channels that are available with other modes. - The 40 MHz and 80 MHz channels enable higher data rates but leave fewer channels available for use. For more information, see Change the channel width for a radio on page 89. • Guard Interval: From the menu, select the transmission power of the radio. You can select 100%(Max), 50%, 25%, 12.5%, or 4%(Min). The default is 100%(Max). Note: If two or more access points are operating in the same area and on the same channel, interference can occur. In this situation, you might want to decrease the output power for the access point. Make sure that you comply with the regulatory requirements for total radio frequency (RF) output power in your country. • Channel: From the menu, select the WiFi channel for the radio. The available WiFi channels and frequencies depend on the country that you selected for the access point and on the radio. The default is Auto, which enables a radio to automatically select the most suitable channel. Note: You do not need to change the WiFi channel unless you experience interference (which is indicated by lost connections). Note: If you use multiple access points, reduce interference by selecting different channels for adjacent access points. We recommend a channel spacing of four channels between adjacent access points (for example, in the 2.4 GHz band, use channels 1 and 5, or 6 and 10). 6. Click the Apply button. A warning pop-up window displays. 7. Click the OK button. The pop-up window closes and your settings are saved. The radio or radios restart and WiFi clients might need to reconnect.
