Hide SSID:
The
SSID
specifies the name of your wireless network. You
can see this name when logging onto the WiFi, allowing
you to identify the correct subnet.
If the
Hide SSID
option is disabled, your network name is
visible. If this option is disabled, potential network users
must know the exact SSID and enter it manually to be able
to set up a connection.
Some WiFi stations have difficulty connecting to hid-
den wireless networks. If the connection to a hidden
SSID poses problems, first try to set up the connecti-
on with a visible SSID and only then try to hide it.
Security
The
WPA2 Personal (WiFi Protected Access)
security
standard is available for securing data transmission in your
wireless network. This method allows for individualised
keys consisting of
letters and numbers and the depicted
special characters with a length of up to 63 characters
.
You can simply enter them into the
Key
field via the key-
board.
In addition, the devolo Magic also supports the
WPA/
WPA2
Enterprise Mode
encryption key.
As a central au-
thentication and accounting server, a RADIUS server hand-
les the registration and management of user information
for multiple WiFi access points.
4.4.3 Guest network
If you have friends or acquaintances visiting and you want
to provide them with Internet access but without giving
away the password for your WiFi, you can set up a separate
guest account in addition to the main Internet connection.
The guest account can have its own network name, time li-
mit and WiFi password. This way your visitors can browse
the Internet without having access to your local network.
To set up a guest account, activate the
Enable
option.
You can also enable or disable the guest account in
the
devolo App
using the
Guest account
button.
