MRF24WB0M Compatibility With AP/Routers
MRF24WB0M supports only legacy 802.11b rates of 1Mbps and 2Mbps.
To ensure compatibility with MRF24WB0M,
- iOS and Android FW releases need to support 1 and 2 Mbps
- APs/ routers need to support 1 and 2 Mbps
Recommended configurations on APs/Routers settings
- Set AP/router basic rate to 1-2 Mbps
- Set AP/router channel settings to defined social channels such as channel 1, 6 or 11.
If iOS, Android FW releases and AP/routers do not support 1 and 2 Mbps, customers are encouraged to feedback to the manufacturers or developers.
MRF24WB0M is best suited for captive networks, whereby the surrounding wireless networks are under control by the users.
In applications where the surrounding wireless networks are unknown and constantly changing, the MRF24WG0M is highly recommended over the MRF24WB0M.
