protocols that are more secure than WEP, for example,
WPA or WPA2.

802.11b: Uses the 2.4-GHz band.
802.11g: Uses the 2.4-GHz band.
802.11n: Can be used in the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bands.
802.11ac: Uses the 5-GHz band.
Supported Rates (Mbps): The extended physical (PHY) rates
that the AP is configured to support.
Basic Rates (Mbps): The basic physical (PHY) rates that the
AP is configured to support.
Authorization: Either the AP's manually selected
Authorization Class or the default Authorization Class. (The
default authorization can be None, Authorized, or
Unknown). Touch this field to configure the Alias Name and
Authorization Class for the selected AP. To change the default
Authorization Class, go to Settings > 802.11 Settings >

Tester last detected the AP.
802.11n Capabilities: Select the down arrow
for the AP's 802.11n capabilities.
NOTE: The "802.11n Capabilities" are taken from HT
Capabilities in the beacon and included for 802.11n and
802.11ac APs. This field is available only for 802.11n and
802.11ac APs.
802.11ac Capabilities: Select the down arrow
for the AP's 802.11ac capabilities.
NOTE: The "802.11ac Capabilities" are taken from VHT
Capabilities in the beacon and included for 802.11ac APs.
This field is available only for 802.11ac APs. Because an
802.11ac-only AP reports in its beacon both the HT
Capability and VHT Capability elements, an 802.11ac-only
AP will include both the 802.11ac and the 802.11n
Capabilities fields.
