## Configuring a SubGhz Channel
Unlike the 2.4 Ghz band the frequencies used in SubGhz band are not standarized
world wide.
Generally speaking the 868 MHz range is used in Europe and the 915 Mhz range is
used in North America and Australia.
The Open Elink project supports 5 channels in each of these bands, it is up
to the user to configure the system to use a channel which is legal in their
country.
The SubGHz radio is an optional module that can be added to an AP to provide
SubGhz support.
Currently the OEPL AP firmware only supports the TI CC1101
module connected to an AP based on the ESP-C6 (Yellow AP, Mini AP v3 or
Mini AP v4).
If the ESP-C6 detects the CC1101 module the Settings tab on the Open EPaper
Link Access Point web page will show the SubGhz channel drop down selection
box.
SubGhz is disabled by default.

If your AP has a CC1101 module and SubGhz channel selection is not shown
make sure your AP firmware has SubGhz support and that you have cleared
your browse's cache.
If the SubGhz channel selection is stil not shown after clearing the cache
and refreshing the page then something is wrong.
Select a channel appropriate for your country from the drop down list.

Save the new settings, SubGhz communications are now active and SubGhz tags
should be able to connect.
