Click an item on the menu to reveal a submenu. Follow the

3.7.1 Interface

SSID

The SSID is an identification string of up to 32 ASCII characters that

differentiate the ASUS 802.11g AP from other manufacturers. The SSID is

also referred to as the “ESSID” or “Extended Service Set ID.” You can use

the default SSID and a radio channel unless more than one ASUS 802.11g

AP is deployed in the same area. In that case, you should use a different

SSID and radio channel for each ASUS 802.11g AP. All ASUS Wireless

APs/Routers and ASUS 802.11g/802.11b WLAN client adapters must have

the same SSID to allow a wireless mobile client to roam. By default, the

SSID is set to “default”.
