Hide or broadcast the SSID for a WiFi
network
By default, a WiFi network (SSID) broadcasts its network name (also referred to as the
SSID) so that WiFi clients can detect the SSID in their scanned network lists. For additional
security, you can turn off the SSID broadcast and hide the SSID so that users must know
the SSID to be able to join the WiFi network.
To hide or broadcast the network name for a WiFi network:
1. Connect your computer or mobile device to the AP in one of the following ways
•
Connect directly to the AP’s WiFi network or LAN. (Applies to the AP in either
operation mode.)
•
Connect to the same network that the AP is connected to. (Applies only if the AP
is operating in AP mode.)
2. Launch a web browser and enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
Instead, if you are connected to same network as the AP, enter the LAN IP address
that is assigned to the AP. For information about finding the IP address, see Find the
IP address of the AP when you cannot use routerlogin.net on page 32.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, dismiss the warning. For more information,
see Dismiss a browser security warning on page 38.
3. Enter the AP local device password.
The local device password is the one that you specified. The local device password
is case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select BASIC > Wireless.
The Wireless Network page displays.
5. Select the WiFi network (Wireless 1, Wireless 2, or Wireless 3).
