Option Description
Band The new amendment allows IEEE 802.11g units to fall back to
speeds of 11 Mbps, so IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11
g
devices can
coexist in the same network. The two standards apply to the 2.4
GHz frequency band. IEEE 802.11g creates data-rate parity at 2.4
GHz with the IEEE 802.11a standard, which has a 54 Mbps rate at
5 GHz. (IEEE 802.11a has other differences compared to IEEE
802.11b or g, such as offering more channels.)

54g Rate Drop-down menu that specifies the following fixed rates: Auto:
Default. Uses the 11 Mbps data rate when possible but drops to
lower rates when necessary. 1 Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, or 11Mbps
fixed rates. The appropriate setting is dependent on signal
strength.
Multicast Rate Setting multicast packet transmit rate.
