HITRON CGN USER'S GUIDE
Use this field to make your network visible or invisible to
other wireless devices.

Select the checkbox if you do not want the CGN to
broadcast the network name (SSID) to all wireless
devices in the coverage area. Anyone who wants to
connect to the network must know the SSID.

Deselect the checkbox if you want your network
name (SSID) to be public. Anyone with a wireless
device in the coverage area can discover the SSID,
and attempt to connect to the network.
This field controls whether or not the SSID is in
operation.
NOTE:
This field is user-configurable for the Primary
SSID only.
Select the checkbox if you want to apply Wifi MultiMedia
(WMM) Quality of Service (QoS) settings to this SSID.
Select the SSID for which you want to configure
security.
Select the type of security that you want to use.

Select None to use no security. Anyone in the
coverage area can enter your network.

Select WEP to use the Wired Equivalent Privacy
security protocol.

Select WPA-Personal to use the WiFi Protected
Access (Personal) security protocol.
NOTE:
Due to inherent security vulnerabilities, it is
suggested that you use WEP only if it is the only
security protocol your wireless clients support.
Under almost all circumstances, you should use
WPA-Personal.
