Choose “AP Only Mode” from the list.

3. Green AP: Enable the Green AP function to reduce the power consumption when

there is no wireless traffic.

4. AP Number: This device supports up to 8 SSIDs at the same time for you to

manage your wireless networks. You can select AP1 ~ AP8 and configure each

wireless network individually.

5. Network ID (SSID): Network ID is used for identifying a Wireless LAN. Client

stations can roam freely over this device and other Access Points that have the

same Network ID. The factory default

SSID is “default”, you can change it to a

meaningful identifier for the wireless users to easy find it out.

6. SSID Broadcast:

By default, the SSID Broadcast setting is “Enable”, and the

device will broadcast beacons that have some information, including SSID, to the

air, so that wireless clients can know how many AP devices by scanning the

twork. Therefore, if this setting is configured as “Disable”, you can hide the

wireless network from been scanned by wireless clients. Those who know the

SSID can manually specify the SSID on their client device to connect the hidden

wireless network.
