Wireless Network ID
The Wireless Network ID (also referred to as the SSID) is like a
secret code that your AP and your Wireless devices share to
prevent unauthorized users from accessing your WLAN. Your
Wireless devices can only connect to your AP if they have the same
SSID as the AP. Wireless devices in Ad-hoc mode must be set to the
same SSID.
The Wireless Network ID is case-sensitive and must not exceed 32
characters.
WLAN

instead of wires to connect network stations.
