4.6 Wireless 

 

4.6.1 Wireless 

Setup 

SSID is the wireless network name of your router. Your wireless client will need this name 
to establish a wireless connection. The SSID default is set to “

yournetworkname

”. It can 

be changed to any suitable name should you wish. The 

wireless setup

 menu allows the 

user to enable or disable the AP (wireless Access Point). Disabling AP will turn the 
wireless interface of the router off, and prevent anybody from connecting to the router 
using Wi-Fi. If you do not intend to use the Wi-Fi section of your Mega 100WR, it is 
suggested that you disable the AP. See 

Figure 4-38
