All Wi-Fi enabled Schlage devices have the following requirements and applications when connecting with the Wi-Fi network:
Communication Standards:
- 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g is required for NDE
- 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g/n is supported for NDEB, LE, LEB, CTE
Connect Data Rate
Each Wi-Fi network access point supporting specific Schlage devices requires the Mandatory Connect Data Rate to be set:
- NDE devices require the Wi-Fi Mandatory Connection Data Rate to be set no higher than 24Mbps or they fail to associate with the wireless AP.
- NDEB, LE, LEB, CTE devices do not have any Wi-Fi Mandatory Connection Data Rate restrictions.
- The local IT professional should check this router setting if/when devices fail to associate with the local Wi-Fi network.
- An Automatic Mandatory Connect Data Rate is a typical router setting. IT professionals use this setting to force a minimum data rate for each device to associate with the Wi-Fi access point. The Connect Data Rate setting is intended to increase Wi-Fi network performance and not allow weak signal or slow data rate devices to connect.
