default is 802.11b/g/n Mixed Mode.
Network Name (SSID): Shows the Wi-Fi network name (SSID), which is broadcast
by the device to allow Wi-Fi enabled devices to identify and connect to it. You can
change the Network Name by typing the desired name directly into the text box.

appears in the list of available Wi-Fi networks on your Wi-Fi enabled devices. If

Wi-Fi - Connections
View devices that are currently connected to your AT&T Home Base and block and
unblock devices from having access.
The following information is displayed for each connected device:
Block a Device: Checking the "Block Access" box and clicking "Apply" disconnects
the connected device and prevents it from re-connecting to the AT&T Home Base.
The blocked device will then appear in the Blocked Wi-Fi devices list.
Blocked Wi-Fi Devices List: Lists any devices you have blocked from having
access to your AT&T Home Base. Note that since these devices are not currently
connected and are blocked from connecting, they do not have an IP address.
Instead, they are identified by their MAC Address.
Unblock: Checking the "Unblock Access" box and clicking "Apply" unblocks a
previously blocked device, freeing it to connect to the AT&T Home Base again. The
unblocked device is deleted from the Blocked Wi-Fi devices list and will reappear
in the Connected Devices list when it connects.
