Configuring WLAN Settings

: Enter a name for your wireless local area network (WLAN).
The service set identifier (SSID)
is
used to identify a WLAN. A PC and the wireless
device can perform normal data communication only when they have the same
SSIDs. To ensure the WLAN security, do not use the default SSID. You can enter a
character string as the SSID, such as
MyHome
.
SSID Broadcast
: Enable or disable the SSID broadcast.
y
Enabled
: The device broadcasts the SSID of the WLAN and users can easily
access the WLAN. In this case, unauthorized users can also access the WLAN
because the SSID is broadcasted.
y

: The device does not broadcast the SSID of the WLAN. Before
accessing the WLAN, a user must obtain the SSID of the WLAN. In this case, the
WLAN security is improved.

when you configure the WLAN setting. After the setting,
you can select
