2.1.2 Channel
A radio frequency used by a wireless device is called a channel.
2.1.3 Transmission Rate
When the communication quality drops below a certain level, the G-302 v3 automatically
switches to a lower transmission (data) rate. Transmission at lower data speeds is usually more
reliable. When the communication quality improves again, the G-302 v3 gradually increases
the transmission (data) rate again until it reaches the highest available transmission rate.

Note: Actual speeds attained also depend on the distance from the AP, noise, etc.
2.2 Wireless LAN Security Overview
Wireless LAN security is vital to your network to protect wireless communications.
