Click Apply. The WiMAX Modem stores your settings. 

When the WiMAX Modem searches for available frequencies, it scans all 
frequencies from DL Frequency [1] to DL Frequency [4]. When it finds an 
available connection, the fields in this screen will be automatically set to use that 
frequency.

Click ADVANCED > WAN Configuration > Antenna Selection to switch 
between the WiMAX Modem’s internal antenna and the (optinoal) external 
antennas, if they are installed.

Note: This screen only pertains to the MAX-216M1R plus. Other devices in this series 

do not support external antennas.
