Settings Description
Wireless
Network
Name (SSID) The SSID is also known as the wireless network name.
Enter a 32-character (maximum) name in this field. This
field is case-sensitive.
In a setting where there is more than one wireless network,
different wireless network names provide a means for
separating the traffic. Any device you want to participate in a
wireless network must use the SSID.
Region The location where the Product Family is used.
Channel The wireless channel used by the gateway. The default is
Channel 6.
Do not change the wireless channel unless you experience
interference (shown by lost connections or slow data
transfers). If this happens, you might need to experiment
with different channels to see which is the best.
Mode The default is g & b, which allows both 802.11g and 802.11b
wireless stations access. Note that in b only mode, 802.11g
wireless stations can connect if they can operate in 802.11b
mode.
