Advanced wireless settings

The advanced wireless features provide can provide you with additional options for
setting up your wireless network such as multiple SSID and WDS (Wireless Distribution
System) or wireless bridging.

Multiple SSID

Advanced > Wireless (2.4GHz or 5GHz) > Multiple SSID
The multiple SSID feature allows you to broadcast up to 3 SSIDs (or wireless network
names). When wireless devices are searching for available wireless networks to connect
to, the SSIDs (or wireless network names) will appear as separate and different wireless
networks. Since they appear as separate wireless networks, they are also referred to as
virtual APs (Access Points) since they appear as separate wireless access points but are
actually all being broadcasting and managed by a single wireless access point. Each
virtual AP can be configured each with a different SSID (or wireless network name),
security type and additional settings for wireless devices to connect. You can use the
multiple SSID feature to setup guest wireless accounts with a different security type to
keep your primary wireless network security information private. The diagram shows an
example of a client connecting to SSID 1 and another client connecting to SSID 2.

By default, your router functions in Access Point mode to allow wireless client devices to
connect and access your network resources and access the Internet using a single SSID.
The diagram below shows your router in Access Point mode and clients connecting to
your router using a single SSID.
To configure multiple SSID on your router:
1. Log into the management page (see
2. Click on Advanced and click on Wireless (2.4GHz or 5GHz), then click on Multiple
SSID.
3. Next to Multiple SSID1 or SSID2, check Radio On/Off option to enable the additional
SSID.
 New Schedule: The schedule function allows you to define a schedule when the
additional SSID should be turned on. To define a new schedule, click New Schedule
and refer to page 30
"Create
Schedules". After you have created a new schedule,
click the drop-down list and the new schedule will be available for selection. Note:
Before applying scheduling, please ensure your Time settings are configured correct
and you have defined a schedule. See page 29 to configure
page 30
"Create
Schedules" to create a schedule.
4. Wireless Name (SSID): Enter the wireless name (SSID) for additional SSID. This
acronym stands for Service Set Identifier and is the name of your wireless network. It
differentiates your wireless network from others around you. By default, the router's
wireless name is unique to the device. It is recommended to change it to a name
different from the primary SSID 1 and one that you can easily remember.
