Security: Select an option from the Security drop-down list. The extender provides
three options, No Security, WPA/WPA2 Personal (Recommended), and WEP. WPA2
uses the newest standard and the security level is the highest. Don’t change the default
settings unless necessary.
Mode: Select the desired mode.
• 802.11n only: Select only if all of your wireless clients are 802.11n devices.
• 802.11g/n mixed: Select if you are using both 802.11g and 802.11n wireless clients.
• 802.11b/g/n mixed: Select if you are using a mix of 802.11b, 11g, and 11n wireless
clients.
Note: When 802.11n only mode is selected, only 802.11n wireless clients can connect to the extender. It
is strongly recommended that you select 802.11b/g/n mixed, so that all of 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n
wireless clients can connect to the extender.
Channel Width: Select the channel width. The default setting is Auto, which can adjust
the channel width for your clients automatically.
