Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Changing the Wireless Channel
There are a number of operating channels from which you can choose—
in the United Kingdom (and most of Europe) and Australia, there are 13.
In other countries, there are other channel requirements. Your Modem
Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for the country
in which you reside. The channel can be changed if needed. If there are
other wireless networks operating in your area, your network should
be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other wireless
networks.
Using the Wireless Mode Switch
This switch allows you to set the Modem Router's wireless modes. There
are several modes.
Note: Some modes may require firmware updates to be enabled.
1. 802.11n & 802.11g & 802.11b
Setting the Modem Router to this mode will allow N1/draft
802.11n-, 802.11g-, and 802.11b-compliant devices to join the
network.
2. 802.11g only
Setting the Modem Router to this mode will allow only 802.11g-
compliant devices to join the network, keeping out any slower
802.11b devices.
3. 802.11n only
Setting the Modem Router to this mode will allow only N1/draft
802.11n-compliant devices to join the network, keeping out
802.11g and 802.11b devices.
4. Off
This mode will turn OFF the Modem Router's access point, so no
wireless devices can join the network. Turning off the wireless
function of your Modem Router is a great way to secure your
network when you are away from home for a long period of time,
or don't want to use the wireless feature of the Modem Router at
a certain time.
