Signal Strength: The signal strength quality between the Range Extender / Bridge and the Source Network. It is
recommended that the signal strength is greater than 70% for optimal performance.

Band: Select the compatible Wi-Fi standard and speed for your wireless network. This is typically the same
band as what the Source Network is operating on to ensure optimal performance.

VLAN ID: Available in Firewall Range Extender mode only. The VLAN ID is a feature that allows you to virtually
map connected devices and secure access for each Extended Network SSID created. Devices that are
connected to an SSID with a specific VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) ID cannot access or see devices
connected to SSIDs with a different VLAN ID. For example, if SSID 1 is assigned to VLAN 1 and SSID 2 is assigned
to VLAN 2, then devices connected to SSID 1 will not be able to see or access devices or files on SSID 2 (VLAN
2). VLAN IDs can range between 1 and 4094.

Channel: Select the channel number for the 2.4GHz radio and 5.0GHz radio. When connected to a Source
Network the channel number of the Range Extender MUST match that of the Source Network for normal
operation.

Channel Bandwidth: Select the channel width for the 2.4GHz radio and 5.0GHz radio. It is recommended to
match the channel bandwidth of the Source Network for optimal operation.
