Note:
The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway is not designed for multiple, simultaneous configuration
changes. If you have a network that includes multiple access points, and more than one
administrator is logged on to the Administration Web pages and making changes to the
configuration, all access points in the cluster will stay in sync, but there is no guarantee
that all configuration changes specified by multiple users will be applied.

Note: If you are connected as a wireless client to the same AP that you are admin-
istering, resetting the SSID will cause you to lose connectivity to the AP. You
