Click Enable Wireless Access to enable the wireless function of the gateway.
SSID. (Service Set Identifier.) The SSID is the network name shared among all points in the
wireless network. The SSID must be identical for all points in the wireless network. It is case-
sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters (use any characters on the keyboard).
Hide SSID. The gateway will not broadcast its SSID or the SSID of any device connecting to
it. Hiding the SSID makes your wireless network more secure as, unless the wireless user
knows the SSID in advance, they cannot connect to the gateway. (Some old wireless LAN
cards do not support this function. Please contact your wireless card vendor for new firm-
ware.)
Region. Select the region for your location.
Channel. Select an appropriate channel from the list. The default channel is 11. All devices in
your wireless network must be set to the same channel.
Operation Mode. There are four operation modes Auto, Super-G, 802.11b/g and 802.11b only.
When in Auto mode, you can use either Super G wireless network interface cards or regular
802.11g wireless network interface cards connect to the gateway. If all wireless clients are using
Super G, the gateway will serve the clients at the maximum speed. If one or more of the clients
use 802.11g or 802.11b connecting to the gateway, the gateway will be in 802.11b/g mixed
mode. At Super-G, the channel will be fixed at 6, the regular 802.11g and 802.11b clients
cannot connect to the gateway when in this mode. The default value is in 802.11b/g mixed
mode, you can use both 802.11b and 802.11g's wireless network interface card to connect to
the gateway. If you want to support only 802.11b, choose 802.11b only.
Enable Wireless Access List. Check the box to enable the wireless access control list. Only
users in the access list can connect to the wireless network when enabled. Click Setup Access
List to configure the list.
Wireless Security. It is strongly recommended to use one of the Wireless Security modes to
protect your local network.
