Wireless Controller
5 GHz IEEE 802.11n is the recommended mode for networks with 802.11n
devices that operate in the 5 GHz frequency that do no t need to support 802.11a
or 802.11b/g devices. IEEE 802.11n can achieve a higher throughput when it
does not need to be compatible with legacy devices (802.11b/g or 802.11a).
Mode (802.11b/g/n): The Mode defines the Physical Layer (PHY) standard the radio
uses. Select one of the following modes for radio interface.
IEEE 802.11b/g operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. IEEE 802.11b is an
enhancement of the initial 802.11 PHY to include 5.5 Mbps and 11 Mbps data
rates. It uses direct sequence spread spectrum (DSS S) or frequency hopping
spread spectrum (FHSS) as well as complementary code keying (CCK) to provide
the higher data rates. It supports data rates ranging from 1 to 11 Mbps. IEEE
802.11g is a higher speed extension (up to 54 Mbps) to the 802.11b PHY. It us es
orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). It supports data rates
ranging from 1 to 54 Mbps.
IEEE 802.11b/g/n operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and includes support for
802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n devices.
2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11n is the recommended mode for networks with 802.11n
devices that operate in the 2.4 GHz frequency that do not need to support 802.11a
or 802.11b/g devices. IEEE 802.11n can achieve a higher throughput when it
does not need to be compatible with legacy devices (802.11b/g or 802.11a).
Wireless Default VAP Configuration
SSID: Wireless clients identify a wireless network by the SSID, which is an
alphanumeric key that uniquely identifies a wireless local area network. The SSID can
be up to thirty-two characters in length, and there are no restrictions on the characters
that may be used in an SSID.
Security: The default AP profile does not use any security mechanism by default. In
order to protect your network, D-Link strongly recommends that you select a security
mechanism so that unauthorized wireless clients cannot gain access to your network.
The following WLAN network security options are available in WLAN wizard.
None: No security
