Mixed (11b+11g) Mode
In this mode, the Router is compatible with 802�11b and 802�11g wireless
clients simultaneously� This is the factory default mode and ensures
successful operation with all Wi-Fi-compatible devices� If you have a
mix of 802�11b and 802�11g clients in your network, we recommend
setting the Router to mixed (11b+11g) mode� This setting should only be
changed if you have a specific reason to do so�
11g only Mode
11g mode works with 802�11g clients only� This mode is recommended
only if you want to prevent 802�11b clients from accessing your network�
To switch modes, select the desired mode from the "Wireless Mode"
drop-down box� Then, click "Apply Changes"�

11b only Mode
We recommend you DO NOT use this mode unless you have a very
specific reason to do so� This mode exists only to solve unique problems
that may occur with some 802�11b client adapters and is NOT necessary
for interoperability of 802�11g and 802�11b standards�
When to Use 11b only Mode
In some cases, older 802�11b clients may not be compatible with 802�11g
wireless� These adapters tend to be of inferior design and may use
older drivers or technology� Switching to this mode can solve problems
that sometimes occur with these clients� If you suspect that you are
using a client adapter that falls into this category of adapters, first
check with the adapter vendor to see if there is a driver update� If there
is no driver update available, switching to b only mode may fix your
problem� Please note that switching to 11b only mode will decrease
802�11g performance�
off
This option will turn off wireless functionality�
