Wireless Channel . Select the appropriate channel to be used between your Wireless
Router and your client devices. The default is channel 6. You can also select Auto so that
your Wireless Router will select the channel with the lowest amount of wireless
interference while the system is booting up. Auto channel selection will start when you
click the Save Settings button, and it will take several seconds to scan through all the
channels to find the best channel. For the Wireless-N 40MHz channel option (see
Wireless - Advanced Wireless Settings Tab), the Wireless Router will automatically select
the adjacent 20MHz channel to combine them into a wider channel.
Multiple BSSID . Select Enabled or Disabled as required.
SSID Name . The SSID is the unique name shared between all devices in a wireless
network. It is case-sensitive, must not exceed 32 alphanumeric characters, and may be
any keyboard character. Make sure this setting is the same for all devices in your wireless
network. The default SSID name is
linksys-n .
SSID Broadcast . This option allows the SSID to be broadcast on your network. You may
want to enable this function while configuring your network, but make sure that you
disable it when you are finished. With this enabled, someone could easily obtain the SSID
information with site survey software or Windows XP and gain unauthorized access to
your network. Click
Enabled to broadcast the SSID to all wireless devices in range.
Click Disabled to increase network security and prevent the SSID from being seen on
networked PCs. The default is Enabled in order to help users configure their network
before use.
