g and b Mode

In this mode, the Router is compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g

wireless clients simultaneously. This is the factory default mode and

ensures successful operation with all Wi-Fi-compatible devices. If

you have a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g clients in your network, we

recommend setting the Router to g and b mode. This setting should

only be changed if you have a specific reason to do so.

g only mode works with 802.11g clients only. This mode is

you are using a client adapter that falls into this category of adapters,

first check with the adapter vendor to see if there is a driver update. If

there is no driver update available, switching to b only mode may fix

Please note that switching to b only mode will decrease

your problem.
