4.1 Wi-Fi-netværkskonfiguration

The VigorAP 906 supports dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) for optimal performance.

• SSID-administration: You can create multiple SSIDs (Wi-Fi network names) for different purposes, such as a main network, a guest network, or an IoT network. Each SSID can have its own security settings and VLAN taggik.
• Sikkerhedsprotokoller: Configure Wi-Fi security using WPA3 Personal or WPA3/WPA2 Mixed Mode for compatibility with older devices while maintaining strong encryption.
• Kanalvalg: For best performance, especially in congested areas, consider using the auto-channel selection feature or manually selecting less crowded Wi-Fi channels.
• MU-MIMO teknologi: The 2x2 MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output) technology allows the access point to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously, improving efficiency and throughput in high-density environments.

4.2 Wired Device Connectivity

The VigorAP 906 features 5 Gigabit Ethernet ports (4x LAN A, 1x LAN B) for connecting wired devices.

• Connect devices like desktop computers, network-attached storage (NAS), printers, or gaming consoles directly to any of the available LAN ports using standard Ethernet cables.
• These ports provide high-speed wired connectivity, ideal for applications requiring stable and fast data transfer.
