Channel Width Select the channel bandwidth you want to use for your WiFi network.
Select 20MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your
neighborhood.
Select 20/40MHz to allow the Zyxel Device to choose the channel bandwidth (20 or 40
MHz) that has least interference.
Select 20/40/80MHZ to allow the Zyxel Device to choose the channel bandwidth (20 or 40
or 80) that has least interference. This option is available only when you select 11ac or 11ax
in the 802.11 Mode field.
Select 20/40/80/160MHz to allow the Zyxel Device to choose the channel bandwidth (20 or
40 or 80 or 160 MHz) that has least interference. This option is available only when you set
802.11 Band to 5G/6G, and select 11ax in the 802.11 Mode field.
Note: If the environment has poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the Zyxel Device will
Chapter 13 AP Profile
11b/g: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate
with the Zyxel Device. The Zyxel Device adjusts the transmission rate automatically
according to the WiFi standard supported by the wireless devices.
11n: allows IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the Zyxel Device.
11ax: allows IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g, IEEE802.11n, and IEEE802.11ax compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the Zyxel Device. If the WLAN device isn't compatible with
802.11ax, the Zyxel Device will communicate with the WLAN device using 802.11n, and
so on.
11a: allows only IEEE 802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Zyxel
Device.
11n: allows both IEEE802.11n and IEEE802.11a compliant WLAN devices to associate
with the Zyxel Device.
11ac: allows IEEE802.11n, IEEE802.11a, and IEEE802.11ac compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the Zyxel Device. If the WLAN device isn't compatible with 802.11ac, the
Zyxel Device will communicate with the WLAN device using 802.11n, and so on.
11ax: allows IEEE802.11n, IEEE802.11a, IEEE802.11ac, and IEEE802.11ax compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the Zyxel Device. If the WLAN device isn't compatible with
802.11ax, the Zyxel Device will communicate with the WLAN device using 802.11ac,
and so on.
11ax: allows IEEE802.11ax compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Zyxel Device.
