Wireless Configuration

SSID

• You can input SSID to group your wireless network. The wireless clients that have the
same SSID can communicate with others.

Host

• In Host item, you can define the wireless cable modem name.

Channel

• There are 11 channels available for US. You also can specific wireless
communication channel in Channel section. If there are multiple wireless cable
modems or access points in the same area, wireless channels should be well organized
to avoid interference. We recommended the adjacent wireless cable modems or
access points should be 5 channels apart. For example, WLCM1 is channel 1, then the
next cell, WLCM2 should use channel 6.

Security WEP

• Security WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) offers wireless data security. The default
WEP setting is "off". You can enable this function by choosing two types of WEP
keys, 64 or 128 bits.
