Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface

Configuring the Wireless Network Settings

The "Wireless" tab lets you make changes to the wireless network
settings. From this tab you can make changes to the wireless network
name (SSID), operating channel, encryption security settings, and
configure the Router to be used as an Access Point.
Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID (Service
Set Identifier) is used. The SSID is your network name. The default
network name of the Router is "Belkin Pre-N_" followed by six digits
that are unique to your Router. Your network name will look something
like "Belkin Pre-N_012345". You can change this to anything you
choose, or you can leave it unchanged. Keep in mind, if you decide
to change your wireless network name, and there are other wireless
networks operating in your area, your network name needs to be
different from other wireless networks that may be operating in your
area. To change the SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the
SSID field
If you make a change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers
may also need to be reconfigured to connect to your new network
name. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for
information on making this change.
