coverage area can discover the SSID, and attempt
to connect to the network.
Select OFF if you do not want the CGNM-2250 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.

Service (QoS) settings to this SSID.

security protocol.
Select WPA to use the WiFi Protected Access
(Personal) security protocol.
Select WPA2 to use the WiFi Protected Access 2
(Personal) security protocol.
Select WPA/WPA2 to use both the WPA and the
WPA2 security protocols; clients that support WPA2
connect using this protocol, whereas those that
support only WPA connect using this 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
one of the WPA options.
