Description
Wireless Interfaces
Displays the wireless name and MAC address.
Wireless
Displays the wireless radio’s status, Enabled or Disabled.
Country
Defines the country where this device is used.
Output Power
Sets the percent of the Output Power for the radio.
802.11 Band
Defines the radio band as 2.4Ghz or 5 Ghz.
Note
: The
distance coverage for 5Ghz is less than 2.4Ghz.
802.11 n-Mode
Sets the wireless networking standard. Select Auto to use
802.11 n mode when possible. This mode has a significant
increase in the maximum raw OSI physical layer data rate
from 54 Mbit/s to a maximum of 600 Mbit/s with the use of
four spatial streams when at a channel width of 40 MHz.
802.11 N Support Required
Defines whether 802.11n support is required (on) or not (off).
On forces the gateway to 802.11n mode and clients must
support 802.11n.
Bandwidth
Sets the bandwidth to 20Mhz or 40Mhz. For 40 Mhz, set the
sideband to lower or upper 20Mhz. 40 MHz channels double
the channel width. This allows doubling the PHY data rate
over a single 20 MHz channel.
Sideband for Control Channel
(40 Mhz only)
Sets the sideband control to the lower or upper 20 MHz when
the bandwidth is set to 40Mhz.
Control Channel
Selects a specific channel 1-11 to deploy the wireless
network. This allows you to set the operating
frequency/channel depending on your particular region.
Channel selection can have an impact on wireless networking
performance. For more information, refer to
Selecting a
Wireless Channel on page 70

Scanning for Wireless Access Points (APs)
You can search for wireless access points and display the results in a new window.
Steps
To search for wireless access points:
1.
Click
Scan Wireless APs
at the bottom of the Wireless Radio screen. Results are
displayed in a new window.
Regulatory Mode
Defines whether Regulatory Mode is set to off, 802.11d, or
802.11h.
Pre-Network Radar Check
Defines the number of seconds to check for radar on a
channel before establishing a network. Current specs specify
60 seconds. Range 0-99. Zero disables checking. Designed
so APs avoid channels that contain radar systems. Used for
802.11h only.
In-Network Radar Check
Defines the number of seconds to check for radar when
switching to a new channel after a network has been
established. Current specs specify 60 seconds. Range: 10-99.
Cannot be disabled. Designed so APs avoid channels that
contain radar systems. Used for 802.11h only.
TPC Mitigation (dB)
Defines the transmitter power control (TPC) mitigation setting
as 0 (off), 2,3, or 4.
OBSS Coexistence
Enables or disables overlapping BSS coexistence.
STBC Tx
Sets the space-time block codes (STBCs) for the transmitting
antenna.
Apply
Saves all screen changes when clicked.
Restore Wireless Defaults
Restores the factory default settings for wireless
configurations when clicked.
Scan Wireless APs
Scans for other wireless access points and displays channel,
encryption, SSID, RSSI levels, and other information.

Description
Network Name
Displays the name of the wireless network (SSID) broadcast
by the access point.
Security Mode
Displays the encryption method used.
Mode
Displays the mode of the wireless access point: Possible
modes are:
Master – Communicates with associated wireless cards
that are in managed mode. Appears as a normal access
point with an SSID and channel. Network
communications, such as authentication, conflict, and
duplicate packets are managed by the wireless card.
Managed – Communicates with an associated master,
not directly with another managed AP. Wireless cards
connect to the master network and change their channel
to match. The master must accept the credentials of the
managed network for it to be associated.
Ad-hoc – Communicates directly with another wireless
network. Network cards must be in range and use the
same name and channel.
Monitor – Communicates in observation mode and does
not transmit. Can be used for troubleshooting wireless
links or checking bandwidth usage in the area.
PHY Mode
Displays the physical transceivers (PHY) layer method used.
RSSI
Displays the received signal strength (RSSI) of the wireless
access points in range of the device. Lower negative numbers
(for example, -1 to -65) indicate the access point is closer.
Greater negative numbers (for example, -66 to -95) indicate
the access point is farther away.
Channel
Displays the channel on which the wireless cable modem is
operating.
BSSID
Displays the MAC address for the nearby wireless access
points.
