Selecting Physical Layer Options
The Physical drop down list contains all physical layer options that are available
for the specific hardware you are using. If your hardware supports IEEE 802.11
a, b and g standards the Physical drop down list will contain Auto, 802.11A,
802.11B, 802.11B-G, Turbo A and Turbo G options. (If the hardware does
not support a physical layer standard MicroView NMS returns a warning dialog
indicating the NIC cannot be configured in the selected physical layer standard.)

Setting Channels and Frequencies
The Channel drop down list displays the currently selected radio channel using
the standard IEEE channel numbering convention. To convert the Channel field
to display the actual frequency, click the Frequency button.

Setting Transmission Rates
The TxRate drop down list allows you to select a standard transmission rate
based on the available rates associated with the selected physical layer standard.
You also can select Auto mode. In Auto mode MicroRed will be auto-configured
to support the optimal TxRate for each related node. This can be very useful in
environments sensitive to retries. In Auto mode an auto-rate fallback algorithm,
which runs on the background, tries to maximize the data transfer rate.

Setting the MAC Address
The MAC Address field contains the MAC address of the configured radio card/
hardware that has been selected in the Selected Wireless Interface field.
However, you can enable spoofing functionality by selecting the Enable
Spoofing checkbox and typing a new MAC address into the MAC Address field.
