For best results, Proxim recommends that you configure the Ethernet setting to match the speed and transmission mode
of the device the Access Point is connected to (such as a hub or switch). If in doubt, leave this setting at its default,
auto-speed-auto-duplex. Choose between:
• 10 Mbit/s - half duplex or full duplex
• 100 Mbit/s - half duplex or full duplex
• Auto speed - auto duplex
Mesh
Mesh functionality can be enabled on only one of the AP’s wireless interfaces. When configured for Mesh, the AP’s
wireless interface simultaneously functions as a Mesh link and as a radio to service clients.
CAUTION: Mesh mis-configuration may cause problems in your wireless network. Before configuring an interface for
Mesh functionality, see Mesh Network Configuration.
