presence of wireless networks. To turn off the broadcast of the SSID, remove the
check mark from the box next to “Broadcast SSID”, and then click “Apply
Changes”. The change is immediate. Each computer now needs to be set to
connect to your specific SSID; an SSID of “ANY” will no longer be accepted.
Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on
making this change.
Protected Mode Switch
Protected mode ensures proper operation of N, draft 802.11n-compliant devices
on your wireless network when 802.11g or 802.11b devices are present or when
there is heavy 802.11g or 802.11b traffic in the operating environment. Use
protected mode if your network consists of a mix of Belkin N+ Wireless Cards
and 802.11g or 802.11b cards on your network. If you are in an environment that
includes little to no 802.11g or 802.11b wireless network traffic, you will achieve
the best N+ wireless performance with protected mode OFF. Conversely, in an
environment with HEAVY 802.11g or 802.11b traffic or interference, you will
achieve the best N+ wireless performance with protected mode ON. This will
ensure N+ wireless performance is not affected.
802.11e/WMM (Wi-Fi® Multimedia) QoS
WMM, based on 802.11e QoS (Quality of Service), prioritizes important data on
your network, such as multimedia content and voice-over-IP (VoIP), so it will not
be interfered with by other data being sent over the network. This feature
requires other wireless devices, such as Wi-Fi phones or wireless laptops, to
support WMM for best results.
Changing the Wireless Security Settings
Your N+ Wireless Router is equipped with the latest security standard called Wi-
Fi Protected Access™ 2 (WPA2™) and the legacy security standard called Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP). Your Router also supports the Wi-Fi Protected
Setup™ (WPS) specification, which simplifies the setup of a wireless network.
WPS uses familiar methodologies, such as typing in a Personal Identification
Number (PIN) or pushing a button, to enable users to automatically configure
network names and strong WPA™/WPA2 data encryption and authentication. By
default, wireless security is disabled. To enable security, you will need to
determine which standard you want to use. To access the security settings, click
“Security” on the “Wireless” tab.
Using Wi-Fi Protected Setup
WPS uses WPA2 (described on page xx) for encryption. It does not provide
additional security, but rather, standardizes the method for securing your wireless
network. You may use either the Push Button Configuration (PBC) method or
PIN method to allow a device access to your wireless network. Conceptually, the
two methods work as follows:
