To access Wireless Basics, point to the Wireless Settings on the left window and click Wireless Basics submenu, or click the
Wireless Basics button in the Wireless Settings window.
The two essential settings for wireless LAN operation are the
Wireless Network Name (SSID) and Wireless Channel. The
SSID (Service Set Identifier) is used to identify a group of
wireless LAN components. The SSID can be visible (broadcast)
or hidden (not broadcast).
Follow the instructions below to change basic wireless settings.
1. The Wireless LAN is enabled by default. To disable the
wireless interface, click to deselect the Enable Wireless
check box. If the wireless interface has been disabled,
click the
Enable Wireless check box again to select it.
2. The Wireless Network Name (SSID) can be changed to
suit your wireless network. Remember that any wireless
device using the access point must have the same SSID

SSID Visibility Status, click the Invisible radio button.
4. Select a country where the Router is located in the
Country drop-down list.
