Change PHY Mode, max speed is 54mbps

Question

Hi Guys
One of my partners is having trouble configuring his first AP-1042 in standalone mode.
Having some issues configuring our first AP-1042N. I am not sure how to change the PHY mode; it seems to be currently set to 802.11a and are only achieving a maximum transmission rate is 54mbps. If the disable lower MCS Rates on the 5GHz channel the wireless interface goes down.
  we are/were trying to configure just a basic Access Point, but were anticipating faster connection speed than 54mbps.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi, thanks Steve. Still alittle confused on how to configure WPA2/AES, client isn't running a radius service; and would prefer a simple psk. I have attempted to configure local authenticator however not quite right (still connecting at 54mbps, and under preforming the linksys router it is replacing). Any suggestions would be appreciated.
