Choose IEEE 802.11 mode
Hello everyone, I am using the router for academic research,and I need it to use only 802.11b mode. How can I configure the router to do that?
Hi Israel-ARP,
Channel can be changed under the wireless settings. NETGEAR firmwares don't have options to select 802.11B.
Hi Israel-ARP,
The lowest mode that the router can be configured is 802.11G byt setting the mode to upto 54mbps.
Ok... But I need more than that.
I want to configure its mode to 802.11b. And i just can't find a way
to do that... is that possible at this router?
Hi Israel-ARP,
This is not possible with the firmware of this router. As what I have mentioned, the lowest mode you can configure the router is the 802.11G.
So can i change the firmware? Which firmware will give me this ability?
I need also the ability to change the channel...
