 IEEE 802.11n (2.4 Ghz)
 IEEE 802.11g
 IEEE 802.11b
Requirements
Your network device must be equipped with a WiFi-certified wireless client.
Connection speed
When setting up your wireless network, keep in mind that the following factors may have a negative impact
on your wireless connection speed:
 The obstacles (walls, ceilings,...) between the wireless client and the access point.
 Distance between the wireless client and the access point.
 To fully benefit from the improved connection speed offered by the IEEE 802.11n standard, it is
recommended to only connect IEEE

capable clients.
