5.4.1 Basic Settings
Click on the
Basic Settings
link under the
Wireless
menu. Using this option you
may configure the 802.11b/g settings as well as the frequency, channel, and SSID.
Band
: Select the IEEE 802.11 mode from the drop-down list. Options available are
2.4GHz (B), 2.4GHz (G), or 2.4GHz (B+G)
. Select the appropriate mode based on
the type of wireless network. For example, if you are sure that the wireless network
will be using only IEEE 802.11g clients, then it is recommended to select 2.4GHz (G)
instead of 2.4GHz (B+G) which will reduce the performance of the wireless network.
SSID
: The SSID is a unique named shared amongst all the points of the wireless
network. The SSID must be identical on all points of the wireless network and cannot
exceed 32 characters.
Channel
: Select a channel from the drop-down list. The channels available are
based on the country’s regulation. When selecting Infrastructure mode, a channel is
not required, however, when selecting Adhoc mode, you must select the same
channel on all points.
