Setting the SSID and making it invisible

Before the wireless network components can communicate with each other, you must

use the same

(Service Set Identifier).

The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable comes supplied with the SSID configured as

ConnectionPoint. For security reasons you should change this SSID and deactivate the

broadcast function (SSID visible).

◆

Service Set ID (SSID)
Enter a character string of your choice. It is not case sensitive. It can be up to

32 alphanumerical characters long.

◆

Remember that after you have completed the Security Setup the

connection to the wireless network adapters will be interrupted

until the new SSID has been entered in them as well.

◆

You will find a detailed example of how to change the SSID in

"Practical Tips and Configuration Examples" on the CD supplied.
