Chapter 6 Wireless Tab
Channel Width Select the channel width of this device. Options include 5MHz, 10MHz,
20MHz and 20/40MHz (this device automatically selects 20MHz or
40MHz, and 20MHz will be used if 40MHz is not available). Users select
corresponding channel width according to whether their devices
support it. According to IEEE 802.11n standard, using a channel width of
40MHz can increase wireless throughput. However, users may choose
lower bandwidth due to the following reasons:
Increase the available number of channels within the
limited total
bandwidth.
To avoid interference from overlapping channels occupied by other
devices in the environment.
Lower bandwidth can concentrate higher transmit power, increasing
stability of wireless links over long distances.
Subject to the channel width of root AP in Client/ Bridge/ Repeater/ Client
Router operation modes.
Max TX Rate Set the maximum transmit data rate.
Channel/Frequency Select the channel used by this device to improve wireless performance.
1/2412MHz refers to Channel 1 and the frequency is 2412MHz. This
setting is only available in the modes of Access Point and AP Router.
CPE210/CPE220/WBS210 is a device with a frequency of 2.4GHz and
CPE610/CPE510/CPE520/WBS510 has a frequency of 5GHz. We highly
recommend you use the Spectrum Analysis
tool to select a proper
channel.
Antenna Gain Antenna Gain is only available in the page of WBS products. Enter the
antenna gain value according to the antennas and the value ranges from 0
to 30dBi.
Transmit Power You can use the slider or manually enter the transmit power value. For
WBS210 and WBS510, the maximum transmit power varies according to
the antenna gain value.
NOTE
: In most cases, it is unnecessary to select maximum transmit
power.
Selecting larger transmit power than needed may cause
interference to neighborhood. Also it consumes more p
ower and will
reduce longevity of the device. Select a certain transmit power is enough
to achieve the best performance. You can use the
Speed Test tool to find
the best performance.
