Parameters
WLAN Service: Default setting is set to Enable. If you do not have any wireless, select Disable.
Mode: The default setting is 802.11b+g (Mixed mode). If you do not know or do not have both
11g and 11b devices on your network, then keep the setting in mixed mode. From the drop-down
menu, you can select 802.11g if you have only 11g card. If you have only 11b card, then select
802.11b.
ESSID: The ESSID is a unique name of a wireless access point (AP) used to distinguish one from
another. For security purpose, change the default wlan-ap to a unique ID name that is already
built into the router wireless interface. It is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
Make sure your wireless clients have exactly the ESSID as the device in order to connect to your
network.
Note: It is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters.
ESSID Broadcast: It is used to broadcast its ESSID on the network so that when a wireless client
searches for a network, the router can be discovered and recognized. Default setting is Enable.
Enable: When enabled, you allow anybody with a wireless client to be able to locate the Ac-
cess Point (AP) of your router.
Disable: When disabled, you do not broadcast your ESSID. Therefore, no one will be able to
locate the Access Point (AP) of your router.
