Using the bandwidth switch
This switch allows you to set the Router’s wireless bandwidth modes.
There are several modes available:
1) 20MHz only
Setting the Router to this mode allows only 20MHz operation. This mode
is compatible with N, draft 802.11n-, 802.11g-, and 802.11b-compliant
devices, but will limit N, draft 802.11n-compliant devices’ bandwidth by
half. Reducing bandwidth to 20MHz-only operation might solve some
wireless problems.
2) 20MHz/40MHz auto
Setting the Router to this mode allows it to switch automatically between
20MHz and 40MHz operation. This mode enables 40MHz operation, to
maximize speed for N, draft 802.11n-compliant devices when conditions
permit. When a legacy 802.11g access point is presented and occupies
an adjacent secondary channel, the Router automatically reverts to
20MHz operation to maximize compatibility. We recommend using this
as the default mode.
