SSID

Before the wireless network components can communicate with each other, they must
all use the same SSID
On delivery, the Gigaset SE361 WLAN's default SSID is ConnectionPoint. For security
reasons you should change this SSID and deactivate SSID broadcast.
If this option is enabled, the Gigaset SE361 WLAN will send the SSID in all data transmis-
sions, and your Gigaset SE361 WLAN's SSID will be displayed on all PCs that have a wire-
less network adapter. In this case eavesdroppers could use the SSID to gain access to
your local network.
ì
Enter a character string of your choice in the SSID field. The SSID is case sensitive. It
can be up to 32 alphanumerical characters long.
Make a note of the SSID. You will need it to log on your PC.
Note:
The connection to the wireless network adapters will be interrupted until the new
SSID has been entered in them as well.
