WIRELESS STANDARDS
The way in which wireless devices communicate with one another is standardized by
the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The IEEE standards
pertaining to wireless LANs are identified by their 802.11 designation. There are a
variety of WLAN standards, but the CGNV2 supports the following (in order of
adoption - old to new - and data transfer speeds - low to high):
IEEE 802.11b
IEEE 802.11g
IEEE 802.11n
6.1.2
SERVICE SETS AND SSIDS
Each wireless network, including all the devices that comprise it, is known as a
“Service Set”.
Each Service Set is identified by a Service Set IDentifier (SSID). This is the name of
the network. Wireless clients must know the SSID in order to be able to connect to
the AP.
You can configure the CGNV2 to broadcast the SSID (in which case, any client who
scans the airwaves can discover the SSID), or to “hide” the SSID (in which case it is
not broadcast, and only users who already know the SSID can connect). See
