the drop-down menu. Selecting Best adapts the rate to the best
available. The default value is Best. The data rates that appear in the
Data Rate drop-down menu are dependent on the Wireless Mode
specified.

Beacon Interval The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the
beacon in milliseconds. A beacon is a broadcast packet by Access
Point (AP) to synchronize wireless network. The default value is 100.
Protection Mode Protection is the mechanism to let 802.11 devices know when they
should communicate to another device. This is most important when
there is a mixed environment of both 802.11b and 802.11g clients.
This function boosts the interoperability of 802.11b and 802.11g
devices but will severely decrease performance.

Broadcast SSID This sets whether or not your SSID is visible to anyone looking for
wireless networks. Disabling it means someone would have to know
your SSID before connecting to your network.
SSID This is the name of your wireless network. The default SSID is
"V54-HOME001", but it is strongly recommended that you change it.
If there are other wireless networks in your area, you should give your
network a unique name. The SSID is case-sensitive and must not
exceed 32 characters.
