Channel

Bandwidth:

Select the channel bandwidth of this device including 20MHz and 40MHz.

The default setting is Auto, which will select the

proper bandwidth

automatically according to the network need.

According to IEEE 802.11n standard, using a higher bandwidth can

increase wireless throughput. However, users may choose lower

bandwidth due to the following reasons:

1. To increase the available number of channels within the limited total

bandwidth.

2. To avoid interference from overlapping channels occupied by other

devices in the environment.

3. Lower bandwidth can concentrate higher transmit power, increasing

stability of wireless links over long distances.
