gateway and easy to associate with it.. However, it is a good security practice not to

unfamiliar with how to configure these parameters, we recommend that you keep them at their
default value.
Mode
The Wireless-G Broadband Gateway can be set at three wireless modes: Auto, 802.11g only
and 802.11b only. If both 802.11g and 802.11b clients presenting at your network, please
select “Auto” mode (This is default mode). “802.11g only” mode only supports 802.11g
clients, and gives better performance to whole network. However, all 802.11b clients will not
be able to use your network at this mode setting. In some situation, 802.11b clients with old
drivers cannot work with Auto mode, “802.11b only” mode can accommodate this problem,
but decrease the performance of 802.11g devices.
