ì Select the On option for Wireless Network (default setting).
Devices can only log in wirelessly if the Gigaset SE366 WLAN's wireless module is
activated.
You can now make the settings for your wireless network.
Transmission mode
The transmission mode defines which IEEE standard you use to transmit data in
your network. IEEE 802.11g permits data transfer up to 54 Mbps, IEEE 802.11b up
to 11 Mbps. In contrast, IEEE 802.11n (draft, see page 15) reaches a transmission rate
of up to 300 Mbps.
ì For the best possible data transfer rates in your network select IEEE 802.11b/g/n
(mixed).
SSID
For the wireless network components to communicate with each other, they must have
the same SSID (Service Set Identifier).
On delivery, the Gigaset SE366 WLAN's default SSID is ConnectionPoint. If you are not
using WPS, you should change this SSID for security reasons.
For security reasons you should deactivate SSID broadcast (see page 67).
To change the SSID manually, enter a character string of your choice. The SSID is case
sensitive. It can be up to 32 alphanumeric characters long.
Channel
All the clients in your network use the set radio channel for wireless data transmission.
You can choose between various channels, depending on your current location.
ì Select the channel for transmitting the data.
Note:
If you have already activated WPS (see page 68), the generated SSID is displayed on
this screen. You should not change this SSID here manually. Otherwise, the registered
clients will no longer have access to your wireless network.
Note:
The connection to the wireless network adapters will be interrupted until you enter
the new SSID on them as well.
