TIP

mode for best performance.
f. Channel width—We recommend that you keep the default (Auto)
setting for each band. In Auto mode, the router and the network
clients automatically switch to the 40 MHz mode if:
•
Your wireless clients support the 40 MHz mode (sometimes
called Bonded mode) in which two 20 MHz channels are bonded
together for better performance.
There is no adjacent interference.
•
With more available channels and less chance of interference on the
5 GHz band, you have the option to force the 40 MHz mode.
On the 2.4 GHz band, you can select:
Auto (20 MHz or 40 Mhz)
•
20 MHz Only
•
On the 5 GHz band, you can select:
Auto (automatically selects from the options below)
•
20 MHz Only
•
40 MHz Only
•
80 MHz Only (EA6500 only)
•
g. Channel—Choose the operating channel for each band. Your
router will automatically select the channel with the least amount
of interference if you leave the default Auto setting. We recommend
keeping the default settings for both bands.
