Description
Wireless Mode
The selections that are available depend on the selected radio mode. 
From the drop-down list select the wireless mode:
• 802.11b/bg/ng mode:
11ng. This is the default setting.
11bg
11b
• 802.11a/na mode:
11na. This is the default setting.
11a
Note: 
If you select 802.11bg or 802.11b mode, both 802.11n- and 
802.11g-compliant devices can connect to the access points. However, 
if you select 802.11ng mode, 802.11b-compliant devices cannot 
connect.
Data Rate
From the drop-down list, select the available transmit data rates of the 
wireless network.
Channel Width
 
(802.11n only)
From the drop-down list, select the available channel width. A wider 
channel improves the performance, but some legacy devices can 
operate only in either 20 MHz or 40 MHz.
Guard Interval
 
(802.11n only)
From the drop-down list, select a value that protects transmissions from 
interference. A shorter guard interval improves performance, but some 
legacy devices can operate only with a long guard interval.
