• Name (SSID). The SSID is also known as the wireless network name. Enter a value of up to
32 alphanumeric characters. 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 particular wireless network will need to use this SSID for that network.
The WPN824 default SSID is: NETGEAR.
• Region. This field identifies the region where the WPN824 can be used. It may not be legal to
operate the wireless features of the wireless router in a region other than one of those
identified in this field.
Note: The region selection feature may not be available in all countries.
• Channel. This field determines which operating frequency will be used. It should not be
necessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems with another
nearby access point. For more information on the wireless channel frequencies please refer to
“Wireless Channels” on page D-7.
