Advanced Wireless Settings

Select Advanced > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings to display the following screen:
The following settings are available in this screen for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands:
Enable Wireless Router Radio. You can completely turn off the wireless portion of the
wireless router by clearing this check box. Select this check box again to enable the wireless
portion of the router. When the wireless radio is disabled, other members of your household
can use the router by connecting their computers to the router with an Ethernet cable.
Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence. This applies only to the 2.4 GHz band. The 20/40 MHz
coexistence function is enabled by default when the wireless mode is set to Up to 300 mbps
(40 MHZ), which is required for Wi-Fi certification. This check box is grayed out if the wireless
mode is set to Up to 130 Mbps.
The router can run in either 40 MHz mode or 20 MHz mode when the wireless mode is set to
Up to 300 Mbps. When the Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence check box is selected, the router
runs in 40 MHz mode unless there is another nearby WiFi network in the area already
running in 40 MHz mode or there is a wireless access point on the secondary channel. If that
happens, the router runs in 20 MHz mode to coexist with that network.
If you want the router to always run in 40 MHz mode, clear this check box and click Apply.
Note: The Fragmentation Length, CTS/RTS Threshold, and Preamble
Mode options are reserved for wireless testing and advanced
configuration only. Do not change these settings.
Turn off wireless signal by schedule. You can use this feature to turn off the wireless signal
from your router at times when you do not need a wireless connection. For example, you
could turn it off for the weekend if you leave town.
