7.8 The Channel Status Screen
Use the Channel Status screen to scan wireless LAN channel noises and view the results. Click
Network Setting > Wireless > Channel Status. The screen appears as shown. Click Scan to
scan the wireless LAN channels. You can view the results in the Channel Scan Result section.
Note: The Scan button only works when the GPON Device uses 20MHz for the wireless
channel width. You can go to the
click the more link, and then change the channel width setting in the Bandwidth
field.

DESCRIPTION
Select 802.11b Only to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices to associate with
the GPON Device.
Select 802.11g Only to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with
the GPON Device.
Select 802.11n Only to allow only IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with
the GPON Device.
Select 802.11b/g Mixed to allow either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the GPON Device. The transmission rate of your GPON Device
might be reduced.
Select 802.11b/g/n Mixed to allow IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g or IEEE802.11n
compliant WLAN devices to associate with the GPON Device. The transmission rate of your
GPON Device might be reduced.
Enabling this feature can help prevent collisions in mixed-mode networks (networks with
both IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g traffic).
Select Auto to have the wireless devices transmit data after a RTS/CTS handshake. This
helps improve IEEE 802.11g performance.
Select Off to disable 802.11 protection. The transmission rate of your GPON Device might
be reduced in a mixed-mode network.
This field displays Off and is not configurable when you set 802.11 Mode to 802.11b
Only.
Select Auto to enable the Reduced Inter-frame Spacing (RIFS) feature. It improves the
Device's performance by reducing the amount of dead time required between OFDM
transmissions. Select Off to disable the feature.
Select a preamble type from the drop-down list box. Choices are Long or Short. See
Section 7.9.7 on page 103
This field is configurable only when you set 802.11 Mode to 802.11b.
Select Enable to allow the coexistence of 20 MHz and 40 MHz Overlapping Basic Service
Sets (OBSS) in wireless local area networks. Select Disabled to disable this feature.
Click Apply to save your changes.
Click Cancel to restore your previously saved settings.
