WiFi6 / IEEE 802.11ax
WiFi6 is backwards compatible with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac and is most suitable in areas with a high
concentration of users. WiFi6 devices support Target Wakeup Time (TWT) allowing them to automatically
power down when they are inactive.
The following table displays the comparison of the different WiFi standards.

7.2 Wireless General Settings

Use this screen to enable WiFi, enter the SSID and select the wireless security mode. These are basic
elements for starting a wireless service. It's recommended that you select More Secure to enable WPA2-
PSK data encryption.
Note: If you are configuring the Zyxel Device from a computer connected to WiFi and you
change the Zyxel Device's SSID, channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless
connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless
settings of your computer to match the Zyxel Device's new settings.
Note: If upstream/downstream bandwidth is empty, the Zyxel Device sets the value
automatically.
Note: Setting a maximum upstream/downstream bandwidth will significantly decrease
wireless performance.
