DESCRIPTION
Click the check box to activate wireless LAN.
Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.
Either select a channel or use Auto to have the ZyXEL Device
automatically determine a channel to use. If you are having problems with
wireless interference, changing the channel may help. Try to use a channel
that is as many channels away from any channels used by neighboring APs
as possible. The channel number which the ZyXEL Device is currently
using then displays next to this field.
