Wireless Mode
If all of the wireless devices you want to connect with this router can connect in the same
transmission mode, you can improve performance slightly by choosing the appropriate wireless
mode. If you have some devices that use a different transmission mode, choose the appropriate
wireless mode. The TEW-692GR supports 5GHz wireless networks. There are many different
configuration options available to choose from. Use the drop down list to select the wireless
mode.
Note: One wireless mode can be selected can select at any one time. This means that you can
only select one of the operating frequency at a time.
Wireless Mode options
5GHz 802.11a only mode - This wireless mode works in the 5GHz frequency range and will
allow wireless a client to connect and access the TEW-692GR 450Mbps Concurrent Wireless N
Gigabit Router at 54Mbps for wireless a only mode. Although the wireless a operates in the
5GHz frequency, this mode will only permit wireless a client devices to work and will exclude
any other wireless mode and devices that are not wireless a only.
5GHz 802.11a/n mixed mode - This wireless mode works in the 5GHz frequency range and will
only allow the use of wireless a/n dual band client devices to connect and access the
TEW-692GR 450Mbps Concurrent Wireless N Gigabit Router up to 450Mbps*. Dual band
wireless client devices that support both wireless a/n can connect and access the TEW-692GR
450Mbps Concurrent Wireless N Gigabit Router up to 450Mbps. Wireless a client devices can
connect and access the TEW-692GR 450Mbps Concurrent Wireless N Gigabit Router but, will
only connect up to 54Mbps, (this due to the legacy limitation of wireless a technology for that
standard). Although the wireless a/n operate in the same 5GHz frequency, this mode will only
permit wireless a/n client devices to work and will exclude any other wireless mode and devices
that are not wireless a/n. (note: wireless b/g/n will not be able to connect at the same time to the
TEW-692GR 450Mbps Concurrent Wireless N Gigabit Router with 5GHz wireless a/n mode
enable).
Wireless Network Name (SSID)
When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the
list (unless Visibility Status is set to Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the
SSID. For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured
network name. Add up to three additional SSIDs to create virtual wireless networks from one
wireless Router Access Point device.
