The available settings in this screen are:
•
Enable Wireless Router Radio
. If you disable the wireless router radio, wireless
devices cannot connect to the WGR614v11 router. If you will not be using your
wireless network for a period of time, you can clear this check box and disable all
wireless connectivity.
•
Enable SSID Broadcast

subset of the 802.11e standard, allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities,
depending on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, like video or audio, will
have a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, Wireless
clients must also support WMM.
