Chapter 9 Wireless LAN Table 19 Network > Wireless LAN 2.4G/5G > General (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Channel Selection Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region. Select a channel from the drop-down list box. The options vary depending on the frequency band and the country you are in. Auto Channel Selection Operating Channel Channel Width Refer to the Connection Wizard chapter for more information on channels. This option is only available if Auto Channel Selection is disabled. Select this check box for the EMG3425-Q10A to automatically choose the channel with the least interference. Deselect this check box if you wish to manually select the channel using the Channel Selection field. This displays the channel the EMG3425-Q10A is currently using. Select the wireless channel width used by EMG3425-Q10A. A standard 20 MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 144Mbps (2.4GHz) or 217Mbps (5GHZ) whereas a 40MHz channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300Mbps (2.4GHz) or 450Mbps (5GHZ). An IEEE 802.11ac-specific 80MHz channel offers speeds of up to 1.3Gbps. Because not all devices support 40 MHz and/or 80 MHz channels, select Auto 20/40 MHz or Auto 20/40/80 MHz to allow the EMG3425-Q10A to adjust the channel bandwidth automatically. 40 MHz (channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to increase throughput. A 80 MHz channel consists of two adjacent 40 MHz channels. The wireless clients must also support 40 MHz or 80 MHz. It is often better to use the 20 MHz setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal. 802.11 Mode Select 20 MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding. If you are in the Wireless LAN 2.4G > General screen, you can select from the following: • 802.11b: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. In this mode, all wireless devices can only transmit at the data rates supported by IEEE 802.11b. • 802.11g: allows IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Device. IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices can associate with the EMG3425-Q10A only when they use the short preamble type. • 802.11bg: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The EMG3425-Q10A adjusts the transmission rate automatically according to the wireless standard supported by the wireless devices. • 802.11n: allows IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. This can increase transmission rates, although IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g clients will not be able to connect to the EMG3425-Q10A. • 802.11gn: allows either IEEE 802.11g or IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your EMG3425-Q10A might be reduced. • 802.11 bgn: allows IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your EMG3425-Q10A might be reduced. If you are in the Wireless LAN 5G > General screen, you can select from the following: • 802.11a: allows only IEEE 802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. • 802.11a/an: allows both IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your EMG3425-Q10A might be reduced. • 802.11a/an/ac: allows both IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11ac compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your EMG3425-Q10A might be reduced. EMG3425-Q10A User's Guide 74

Channel Selection

Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.

Select a channel from the drop-down list box. The options vary depending on the

frequency band and the country you are in.

Refer to the Connection Wizard chapter for more information on channels. This option is

only available if

Auto Channel Selection

is disabled.

Auto Channel

Selection

Select this check box for the EMG3425-Q10A to automatically choose the channel with

the least interference. Deselect this check box if you wish to manually select the channel

using the

Channel Selection

field.

Operating

Channel

This displays the channel the EMG3425-Q10A is currently using.

Channel Width

Select the wireless channel width used by EMG3425-Q10A.

A standard 20 MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 144Mbps (2.4GHz) or 217Mbps

(5GHZ) whereas a 40MHz channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to

300Mbps (2.4GHz) or 450Mbps (5GHZ). An IEEE 802.11ac-specific 80MHz channel offers

speeds of up to 1.3Gbps.

Because not all devices support 40 MHz and/or 80 MHz channels, select

Auto 20/40

MHz

Auto 20/40/80 MHz

to allow the EMG3425-Q10A to adjust the channel

bandwidth automatically.

neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.

802.11 Mode

If you are in the

Wireless LAN 2.4G > General

screen, you can select from the

following:

•

802.11b

: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to

associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. In this mode, all wireless devices can only

transmit at the data rates supported by IEEE 802.11b.

•

802.11g

: allows IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Device.

IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices can associate with the EMG3425-Q10A only

when they use the short preamble type.

•

802.11bg

: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to

associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The EMG3425-Q10A adjusts the transmission rate

automatically according to the wireless standard supported by the wireless devices.

•

802.11n

: allows IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the

EMG3425-Q10A. This can increase transmission rates, although IEEE 802.11b or IEEE

802.11g clients will not be able to connect to the EMG3425-Q10A.

•

802.11gn

: allows either IEEE 802.11g or IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to

associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your EMG3425-Q10A

might be reduced.

•

802.11 bgn

: allows IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN

devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your

EMG3425-Q10A might be reduced.

If you are in the

Wireless LAN 5G > General

screen, you can select from the following:

•

802.11a

: allows only IEEE 802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate with the

EMG3425-Q10A.

•

802.11a/an

: allows both IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11a compliant WLAN devices to

associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate of your EMG3425-Q10A

might be reduced.

•

802.11a/an/ac

: allows both IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11ac

compliant WLAN devices to associate with the EMG3425-Q10A. The transmission rate

of your EMG3425-Q10A might be reduced.
