If you click on the button
Select the optimal channel
, a popup screen will display the
choices. This action does not select the channel for you but shows you what will most probably
be the channel selected if you leave the following dropdown menu at Yes.
Tx Pwr Mode and Fixed Pwr Level: The Tx Power Mode defaults to Auto, giving the
largest range of radio transmission available under normal conditions. As an option, the AP's
broadcast range can be limited by setting the Tx Power Mode to Fixed and choosing from 1-8
for Fixed Pwr Level (1 being the shortest distance.) Finally, if you want to prevent any radio
frequency transmission, set Tx Pwr Mode to Off.
