ENABLING OR DISABLING SSID BROADCAST
SSID broadcast is a way for wireless access points like your MobiiHotspot 4G to announce their
network name.
•
If SSID broadcast is turned on, your MobiiHotspot 4G will announce its network name to any
computer or other device nearby.
•
If SSID broadcast is turned off, any device that wants to connect must have the network name
entered manually - which improves the security of your home network.
