This option turns off and on the wireless connection feature of the
Access Point. When you set this option, the following parameters
are displayed.
Wireless Network Name
When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the
name that will appear in the list (unless Visibility Status is set to
Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the SSID. For
security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the
pre-configured network name.
Visibility Status
The Invisible option allows you to hide your wireless network.
When this option is set to Visible, your wireless network name is
broadcast to anyone within the range of your signal. If you're not
using encryption then they could connect to your network. When
Invisible mode is enabled, you must enter the Wireless Network
Name (SSID) on the client manually to connect to the network.
REGION ID
By default the value 4 will be selected. The default value 4
represents FCC1_FCCA (USA). You have the option of selecting the
region id if necessary. 1: For 11b-only countries, 2: Israel, 4: USA,

Auto Channel Select
If you select this option, the Access Point automatically finds the
channel with least interference and uses that channel for wireless
networking. If you disable this option, the Access Point uses the
channel that you specify with the following Channel option.
Channel
A wireless network uses specific channels in the 2.4GHz wireless
spectrum to handle communication between clients. Some
channels in your area may have interference from other electronic
devices. Choose the clearest channel to help optimize the
performance and coverage of your wireless network.
