In the following configuration screen, you can configure wireless related parameters of your
802.11a+g Router:
Network Name (SSID): The SSID is the network name used to identify a wireless network. The
SSID must be the same for all devices in the wireless network. Several Routers on a network can have
the same SSID. The SSID can be up to 32 characters long. This SSID is used for both radios (i.e.
802.11a and 802.11 b/g).
Disable SSID Broadcasting: An access point periodically broadcasts its SSID, along with other
information, which allows client stations to learn its existence while searching for Routers in the
wireless network. Select Disable if you do not want the device to broadcast the SSID.
Regulatory Domain: This place shows the regulatory domain where the device is running. This field
cannot be changed by regulation.
WLAN standard for Radio 1/2: Here you can set the configuration for each radio.
Mode: For the radio 1, you can select it to run the 802.11a protocol or 802.11a turbo (if the regulation
allows) protocol.
For the radio 2, you can select it to run the 802.11g only protocol or the 802.11b/g (mix mode)
– allowing both 802.11b and 802.11g to co-exist.
Channel: Select the channel from the available list to match your network settings. All devices in the
wireless network must use the same channel and share the total bandwidth available.
Note: The available channels are different from country to country and for different WLAN mode.
Security Policy: You can select different security policy to provide association authentication and/or
data encryption.
