  11bgn mixed - Select if you are using a mix of 802.11b, 11g, and 11n wireless clients. It 
is strongly recommended that you set the Mode to 802.11bgn mixed, and all of 
802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n wireless stations can connect to the router. 
 
Channel - This field determines which operating frequency will be used. The default channel 
is set to Auto, so the AP will choose the best channel automatically. It is not necessary to 
change the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems with another nearby 
access point. 
 
Channel Width - Select the channel width from the drop-down list
.
 
The default setting is 
automatic, which can adjust the channel width for your clients automatically. 
 
Note:
   
If 11bg mixed is selected in the Mode field, the Channel Width selecting field will turn grey 
and the value will become 20M, which is unable to be changed.   
 
Enable SSID Broadcast - When wireless clients survey the local area for wireless networks 
to associate with, they will detect the SSID broadcast by the router. If you select the Enable 
SSID Broadcast checkbox, the Wireless router will broadcast its name (SSID) on the air.
