Configuring Basic Wireless Network Settings
D-35 series only
Clicking on the header of the “Wireless Settings” tab will take you to the
“Wireless Settings” header page. From this page, the Modem’s Wi-Fi router
wireless radio can be enabled or disabled (the default setting is enabled).
There are options that allow you to make changes to the Wi-Fi wireless
network settings.

Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID (Service Set
Identifier) is used. The default SSID of the Modem is “D35Broadband”. You can
change this to anything you want to or you can leave it unchanged. If there are
other wireless networks operating in your area, you will want to make sure that
your SSID is unique (does not match that of another wireless network in the
area). To change the SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the “SSID”
field and click “Apply Changes”. The change is immediate. If you make a
change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers may also need to be
reconfigured to connect to your new network name. Refer to the
documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on making this
change.
Using the Wireless Mode Switch
Your Modem can operate in three different wireless modes: “g and b”, “g only”,
and “b only”.
