Select the wireless channel which this radio profile should use.
It is recommended that you choose the channel least in use by other
APs in the region where this profile will be implemented. This will
reduce the amount of interference between wireless clients and the
AP to which this profile is assigned.
This displays if the operating mode is set to AP+Bridge.
Select the SSID profile this radio profile uses.
Select the channel bandwidth you want to use for your wireless
network.
Select Auto to allow the NWA3000-N series AP to adjust the channel
bandwidth depending on network conditions.
Select 20 MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other
wireless devices in your neighborhood.
Set the guard interval for this radio profile to either short or long.
The guard interval is the gap introduced between data transmission
from users in order to reduce interference. Reducing the interval
increases data transfer rates but also increases interference.
Increasing the interval reduces data transfer rates but also reduces
interference.
