◆ SSID
Enter a string of your choice. The SSID is case sensitive. It can be up to 32
alphanumerical characters long.
◆ Channel
Wireless channel used by the Gigaset Router to communicate with other wireless
network components.
◆ SSID visible
If the option has been activated, the Gigaset Router includes the SSID in all data
transmissions. In this case eavesdroppers could use the SSID to gain access to your
network.
If the option is deactivated, wireless network components that want to connect to
the local network must know the SSID. This offers a certain degree of protection
against unauthorised access.
◆ To apply the settings click on APPLY.

◆ Remember that the connection to the wireless network adapters
will be interrupted until you enter the new SSID on them as well.
◆ You will find a detailed example of how to change the SSID in
"Practical Tips and Configuration Examples" on the supplied CD.

The available channel settings are governed by your country's
regulations. They define the number of available channels. The
default setting is determined by the country setting (see page 49).
You should not change this setting unless you have a good reason to
do so.
