Channel: (Shows if Random Channel is deselected.) The WiFi channel corresponds to a frequency the router uses to
communicate with other devices. For 2.4 GHz, the range is 1 to 11, and 1, 6, and 11 do not overlap each other. If a
WiMAX modem is attached, a higher number channel will increase the chance the router's WiFi and modem's WiMAX
radios will conflict with each other, which may result in lower throughput. Select a channel from the dropdown list:
1 (2412 MHz)
2 (2417 MHz)
3 (2422 MHz)
4 (2427 MHz)
5 (2432 MHz)
6 (2437 MHz)
7 (2442 MHz)
8 (2447 MHz)
9 (2452 MHz)
10 (2457 MHz)
11 (2462 MHz)
For 5.0 GHz, the ranges are 36 to 64 and 149 to 165. These channels do not interfere with a WiMAX modem. If you
choose to use 5.0 GHz, you should consider switching antennas. The default WiFi antennas are optimized for the
2.4 GHz range.
36 (5180 MHz)
40 (5200 MHz)
44 (5220 MHz)
48 (5240 MHz)
149 (5745 MHz)
153 (5765 MHz)
157 (5785 MHz)
161 (5805 MHz)
165 (5825 MHz)
Client Timeout: If the access point is not able to communicate with the client it will disconnect it after this timeout (in
seconds).
