The screenshot shows the setting options for Repeater operating mode; in Access point
operating mode, only Channel and SSID are displayed.
Channel
ì
In Repeater operating mode you must set the channel of the access point whose
range you wish to increase with the repeater.
As soon as you have selected an entry from the Wireless distribution system list,
the appropriate channel is set and the field is no longer editable.
ì
In Access point operating mode, select the Automatic option.
SSID
The SSID (Service Set Identifier) defines your wireless network.
Please remember that using the same SSID for several access points and repeaters
means that you cannot influence which access point your PC will use to set up a connec-
tion. This may cause problems if you wish to connect to a particular device for configu-
ration and it has not been properly integrated into the rest of the network. You may not
be able to reach it as your PC automatically sets up a connection with the strongest
access point. In this case, move to the immediate vicinity of the device you want to con-
nect to, or connect your PC directly to the device in question by means of an Ethernet
cable.
