The list of modes is dependent on the selected country.
You can prevent older wireless stations from slowing down your network, by
choosing an operation mode that restricts access to newer wireless
stations.
Note: The actual data transfer speed is usually significantly lower than the
maximum theoretical bandwidth and degrades with distance.
Important: The station wireless cards must support the selected operation
mode. For a list of cards supporting 802.11g Super, refer to
