Regulation Domain
IEEE 802.11b/g networks are regulated worldwide because these networks use the 2.4GHz ~ 2.5GHz ISM
(Instrumentation, Scientific, and Medical) Band. The WebSTAR DPW939 USB Wireless LAN Adapter is shipped
with a default regulation domain allowed in your country and location. The FCC (US) and ETSI (Europe) specify
operation from 2.4 GHz to 2.4835 GHz. For Japan, operation is specified as 2.4 GHz to 2.497 GHz. For each
supported regulatory domain, all channels marked with “Yes” are supported. The channel center frequencies and
channel ID (CH ID) numbers are shown in the following table.
