Wireless Main/Guest Network Name
(SSID):
This device supports multiple wireless
networks. The system will detect the
Main SSID of your router and
displayed in this field for your
reference.
The SSID is the identification characters of
a router. The default words will be shown
on this page. If you do not check “Hidden
SSID” item, the router will periodically
broadcasts its SSID to allow the wireless
clients within the range to recognize its
presence. This can create a security hole
since any wireless clients which got the
broadcast might associate to your system.
Please note that if you want to
communicate, all wireless clients should
use the same SSID with the router or
access point.
Two SSIDs are supported. One SSID
can be used for main wireless network
and the other SSID can be used for
guest wireless network. Two wireless
networks can be configured in
different wireless security level.
Hide Wireless Main/Guest Network:
Check the box to hide the Main/Guest
SSID of this AP (access point). Thus,
other people in the network cannot
find the Main/Guest SSID of this
device.
Channel:
The frequency in which the radio links
are about to be established. Select
one channel that you want from the
drop down list.
The administrator of network has to
search available channels and assign
one as the communication channel. All
the other clients that match the SSID
and pass security authentication can
access this device and will use the
same channel set here.
