802.11b/g to allow both IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the NWA. The transmission rate of your NWA might be reduced.
•
802.11b/g/n to allow IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the NWA. The transmission rate of the NWA might be
reduced.
•

Select the channel bandwidth you want to use for your wireless network.
It is recommended that you select 20/40MHz. This allows the NWA to adjust the channel
bandwidth depending on network conditions.

Repeater Settings
The repeater function allows the NWA in root AP or repeater mode to set up a wireless connection between it
and another NWA in root AP or repeater mode.

Beacon Interval
When a wirelessly network device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon interval.
This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again. The interval tells
receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in lowpower mode before waking
up to handle the beacon. A high value helps save current consumption of the access point.
