For IEEE 802.11n networks that support 40MHz
wireless transmissions, this field displays whether the
network uses channel bonding, and specifies whether
the extension channel is above or below the primary
control channel.
NOTE: Channel bonding allows an access point to
increase data throughput by using two wireless
channels simultaneously, instead of a single
channel. When you use channel bonding, you
have a primary control channel, and an
extension channel. The extension channel may
be either directly above the control channel, or
directly below.

For IEEE 802.11n networks using channel bonding,
where the extension channel is above the main
channel, ABOVE displays.

For IEEE 802.11n networks using channel bonding,
where the extension channel is above the main
channel, BELOW displays.

For networks that do not use channel bonding,
NONE displays.
This field displays whether the network is using
infrastructure mode, or ad-hoc mode.
NOTE: In infrastructure mode, wireless devices connect
to a central Access Point (AP), which usually
connects to the Internet or another network via a
wired connection. In ad-hoc mode, wireless
devices connect to one another, as peers.
This field displays whether the target network is using
WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) or not. If the target network
is using WPS, this field displays whether it is using PIN
mode, or Push-Button Configuration (PBC) mode.

If the target network is not using WPS, NO displays.

If the target network is using WPS, and allows
wireless devices to connect using the PIN mode, PIN
displays.

If the target network is using WPS, and allows
wireless devices to connect using the push-button
mode, PBC displays.
NOTE: See WPS on page 75 for more information on
WPS, and the difference between PIN and PBC
modes.
