THE BASIC SETTING TAB
The Wireless Network Access Point will automatically detect the settings to
your wireless network. Changing these values will alter your current wireless
network configuration.
• ESSID. The ESSID or SSID is the unique name shared among all points in
a wireless network. The ESSID must be identical for all points in the net-
work. It is case sensitive and must not exceed 30 characters, which may be
any keyboard character. Make sure this setting for all points in the network
are the same. Verify that you’re using the correct ESSID, and click the
Apply button to set it.
• Channel. Select the appropriate channel from the list provided to corre-
spond with your network settings, between 1 and 11 (in North America).
All devices that communicate with this Access Point must use the same
channel in order to work correctly. Verify that the correct channel is select-
ed before clicking the Apply button.
If you have not already clicked the Apply button, the Close button will close
the SNMP Utility without saving any changes.
Click the Apply button to store the information, then click the Yes button to
accept the changes in the dialog box that appears.
