Managing Radio Frequency Settings 105
6 Managing and Maintaining D-Link Access Points
Additionally, radios configured to use Super A or Super G cannot use the channel plan
algorithm.
The RF transmission power level affects how far an AP broadcasts its signal. If the power
level is too low, wireless clients will not detect the signal or experience poor WLAN
performance. If the power level is too high, the RF signal might interfere with other APs
within range or broadcast the signal beyond the desired physical boundaries, which can create
a security risk.
Automatic power uses a proprietary algorithm to automatically adjust the RF signal to
broadcast far enough to reach wireless clients, but not so far that it interferes with RF signals
broadcast by other APs.
To configure Channel Plan and Power Adjustment settings, click AP Management > RF
Management.
Figure 48. RF Channel Plan and Power Configuration
Table 17 describes the RF Channel Plan and Power Adjustment fields you can configure.
NOTE:When the AP changes its channel, all associated wireless clients temporarily
lose their connection to the AP and must re-associate. The re-association can
take several seconds, which can affect time-sensitive traffic such as voice and
video.
