• Band Steering:  Band steering steers 5Ghz capable clients to that frequency. By enabling this function, the 2.4GHz SSID and settings will be copied to the 5GHz band. • Operation Mode: Both the 2.4 and the 5 GHz band have the following operating modes: Access Point, WDS Root Access Point, WDS Repeater and WDS Bridge. o Access Point: Standard mode of operation. Allows a wireless connection to the LAN. o WDS Root Access Point: The access point with this mode set will be the “root” device that access points configured with WDS Repeater and WDS Bridge will connect to.  o WDS Repeater: This mode allows the access point to connect to a WDS Root Access Point. This setting will take the SSID broadcasted by the WDS Root Access Point and rebroadcast it to end user devices. o WDS Bridge: This mode allows the access point to connect to a WDS Root Access Point. This mode takes in the SSID broadcasted by the WDS Root Access Point and turns it into Ethernet connectivity for client devicess. • Wireless Mode: Choose the setting that corresponds to the type of wireless clients connected to your network: B-Only, G-Only, B/G-Mixed, N/G-Mixed or B/G/N-Mixed (on the 2.4GHz) or A-Only, N-Only, N/A-Mixed, AC-Only, AC/N-Mixed or A/AC/N-Mixed (on the 5GHz).  If you aren’t sure which type(s) of clients will access the wireless networks, it’s recommended to choose B/G/N-Mixed on the 2.4GHz and A/AC/N-Mixed on the 5GHz for best performance.  NOTE: When set to a mixed mode, ALL devices connected to the wireless will use the mode that is compatible for ALL devices. Example – If you have the 2.4GHz Wireless set to B/G/N Mixed and all connected devices use G, the speeds will slow accordingly. • Channel Mode:  By default, the Channel Mode is set to HT 20/40 MHz (when using 2.4GHz) and HT 80 MHz (when using 5GHz). Selecting the HT 40 MHz channel mode on 2.4 GHz will allow for greater speeds, but at the risk of also increasing interference. o Example: When using the 20 MHz channel width on the 2.4GHz band, channel 6 would bleed into channels 4, 5, 7 and 8 giving you three non-overlapping channels (1, 6 and 11). When using 40MHz channel width on the 2.4GHz radio, channel 6 would bleed into channels 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10. • Channel – Using the default setting (Auto), the WX-1x automatically selects the channel with best performance for the wireless network. To select a channel manually, click the drop-down list and select a channel. The channel options available depend on the Country Code selected.
• AP Detection – Click “Scan” to perform an automatic site survey. A new window will open and display the site survey utility. The WX-1x will scan the frequency for devices currently broadcasting their SSID, and then will display them in the table.
