Table 10 Wireless Settings: Access Point

Operation Mode

Select the operation mode from the drop-down list. The options are Access Point

and Access Point + Bridge.

SSID

Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must have the same SSID.

Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable characters) for the wireless LAN.

Spaces are allowed.

Note: If you are configuring the G-560 from a computer connected

to the wireless LAN and you change the G-560's SSID,
channel or security settings, you will lose your wireless
connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must then
change the wireless settings of your computer to match the
G-560's new settings.

Hide SSID

Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station

cannot obtain the SSID through passive scanning using a site survey tool.

Channel

Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.
Select a channel from the drop-down list box.
Refer to the chapter on wizard setup for more information about channels.
