y SSID: The SSID is the unique name shared among all devices in a wireless network. The SSID must be
the same for all devices in the wireless network. It is case sensitive and has a maximum length of 32
bytes.
y SSID Broadcast: Select this option to enable the SSID to broadcast in your network. When configuring
the network, it is suggested to enable this function but disable it when the configuration is complete.
With this enabled, someone could easily obtain the SSID information with the site survey software and
get unauthorized access to a private network. With this disabled, network security is enhanced and can
prevent the SSID from being seen on networked.

example, 1 to 11 channels are suitable for the North America area.

and Mix mode (b and g).
y Transmission Rate: The default is Auto. Available range is from 1 to 54Mbps. The rate of data
transmission should be set depending on the speed of the wireless network. Select from a range of
transmission speed or keep the default setting, Auto, to make the Access Point automatically use the
fastest rate possible.
