SSID
Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must have the same SSID. Enter
a descriptive name (up to 32 printable characters) for the wireless LAN. Spaces are
allowed.
If you are configuring the G-560 from a computer connected to
the wireless LAN and you change the G-560’s SSID, channel or
security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when
you press

to confirm. You must then change the wireless
settings of your computer to match the G-560’s new settings.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station

Select a channel from the drop-down list box.
Refer to the chapter on wizard setup for more information about channels.
