Check this box to enable the wireless interface.
ESSID Sets a unique identifier to associate wireless clients with the SBG1000 access point. This
distinguishes between multiple wireless LANs in the same area. All clients on wireless LAN
must have the same Network Name as the access point. It can be any alphanumeric,
case-sensitive string up to 32 characters. The default is “Motorola.” We strongly recommend
not using the default.
Channel Sets the wireless radio channel. You can change the channel if you encounter interference on
the default channel. The default is 1 (one), except in countries where the first channel
permitted for IEEE 802.11b wireless operation is not one.
Basic Rates Sets the wireless data transmission rates that all wireless LAN clients must be able to receive:
• 1, 2 Mbps. The
SBG1000 attempts to transmit at 2 Mbps. Use this setting if the wireless
LAN has only legacy IEEE 802.11b clients.
• 1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbps. The
SBG1000 attempts to transmit at 11 Mbps. If there are
obstacles or interference, it automatically steps down to the highest rate that allows
transmission. Use this setting if the wireless LAN has fully-compliant IEEE 802.11b clients.
The default is 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbps.
