Data Rate

Choose the rate at which the access point transmits data. In
general, higher speeds mean shorter range and lower speeds
mean longer range. If you choose the Speed Mode to be 802.11
compliant, you can set this rate to 54, 48, 36, 24, 12, or 6 Mbps.

Determines if you want the radio to drop to a slower data rate
when it has trouble communicating with another radio.
