WiFi Name (SSID): When users browse for available
wireless networks, this is the name that they will. This
name is referred to as the SSID (service set identifier).
For security purposes, CradlePoint highly recommends
that you change this from the pre-configured name.

Hidden: This shows whether the router broadcasts its
SSID. It is somewhat harder for hackers to find and
attack a router that is not broadcasting its SSID, which
adds to the wireless security, but it is also more difficult
for friendly users to attach to a WiFi network with a
hidden SSID.

Isolate: Select this to isolate all wireless clients so they
cannot directly communicate with each other on the
wireless network.

WMM: WiFi Multimedia. This is a basic traffic shaping,
or QoS (quality of service), system for the network.
WMM works behind the scenes to set priorities for
different types of traffic on your network. For example,
video streams are given higher priority than print jobs,
since video streams need consistent throughput.

Enabled: Whether the network is available.
