for the network, you may configure the following:
network name (ssID)
This is the name of your extended Wi-Fi Range Extender as it will
show up when you try to connect to it from a laptop, tablet, etc.
broadcast ssID
Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users
only. For security, you can choose not to broadcast your extended
network's SSID. Doing so will keep your network name hidden
from computers that are scanning for the presence of wireless
networks. To turn off the broadcast of the SSID, remove the check
mark from the box next to "Broadcast SSID", and then click "Apply
Changes." The change is immediate. Each wireless computer or
device now needs to be set to connect to your specific SSID. Refer
to the documentation of your computer, tablet, or other device.
Protected Mode
Protected mode ensures proper operation of draft 802.11n-compliant
devices on your wireless network when 802.11g or 802.11b devices
are present or when there is heavy 802.11g or 802.11b traffic in
the operating environment. Use protected mode if your network
consists of a mix of Belkin Double N+ Wireless Cards and 802.11g or
802.11b cards. If you are in an environment that includes little to no
802.11g or 802.11b wireless network traffic, you will achieve the best
wireless performance with protected mode OFF. Conversely, in an
environment with HEAVY 802.11g or 802.11b traffic or interference,
you will achieve the best wireless performance with protected
mode ON. This will ensure wireless performance is not affected.
802 .11e/WMM Qos
802.11e/WMM QoS is a feature that prioritizes the traffic
on your wireless network based on the type of traffic. We
recommend leaving this enabled for optimal performance.
