Description
It specifies whether to enable the SSID broadcast.
Enable: It indicates that the router broadcasts the SSID and the SSID can be

detected by clients.
Disable: It indicates that the router does not broadcast the SSID and the SSID does

not appear in the available network list. You need to enter the correct SSID and
WiFi password when connecting the client to the wireless network.
It specifies the WiFi name of the current wireless network of the router (primary
SSID, secondary SSID 1 and secondary SSID 2).
After the router is connected to the internet, the clients can access the internet by
connecting to the SSID. The SSID, which is the WiFi name can be modified.
It specifies the encoding format of Chinese characters in the current SSID (WiFi
name). The default code format is UTF-8.
If 2 or more SSIDs of the router are enabled, you are recommended to set this
parameter to UTF-8 for some SSIDs and to GB2312 for the other SSIDs, so that any
wireless client can identify one or both SSIDs that contain Chinese characters.
It specifies the encryption type of the wireless network.
None. No security mode is selected.

WPA-PSK: It is a standard, interoperable and enhanced WLAN security solution,

adopting an encryption algorithm more secure than WEP.
WPA2-PSK: It provides better security than WEP or WAP.

WPA-PSK&WPA2-PSK: Both WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK are supported.

It specifies the password of the wireless network. In consideration of network
security, it is strongly recommended to set the WiFi password.
It specifies the automatic update interval of a key for data encryption, which results
in higher data security.
It specifies the maximum number of wireless clients that can connect to the router
with the selected SSID (WiFi name).After this upper limit is reached, the SSID rejects
new connection requests from clients.
The router supports two secondary SSIDs, which are disabled by default.
Configuration steps of the secondary SSIDs are same as those of primary SSID.
