Wi-Fi Settings

You can manage your AT&T Home Base Wi-Fi Settings under
Settings > Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi - Basic
Wi-Fi Broadcast: Enable or disable Wi-Fi connectivity.
Network Mode: Indicates which mode is active for connecting via
Wi-Fi. The default is 802.11b/g/n Mixed Mode.
Network Name (SSID): Shows the Wi-Fi network name (SSID),
which is broadcast by the device to allow Wi-Fi enabled devices to
identify and connect to it. You can change the Network Name by
typing the desired name directly into the text box.
Broadcast Network Name (SSID): If this setting is enabled, the
AT&T Home Base appears in the list of available Wi-Fi networks on
your Wi-Fi enabled devices. If disabled, the network will not appear.
32 Device Configuration
Frequency (Channel): This should be left on Automatic unless you
need to choose a particular channel for your environment.
Maximum Wi-Fi Devices: Specify how many devices can
simultaneously connect to the AT&T Home Base.
Be sure to click "Apply" after you've made changes.
Wi-Fi - Connections
View devices that are currently connected to your AT&T Home Base
and block and unblock devices from having access.
The following information is displayed for each connected device:
Device Name: If you have assigned a name to the connected
device, the assigned name will appear. If the device name
is unavailable, you will need to refer to the MAC Address to
identify your device.
MAC Address: A unique network identifier for the connected
device.
IP Address: IP address of the connected device.
Block a Device: Checking the "Block Access" box and clicking
"Apply" disconnects the connected device and prevents it from
re-connecting to the AT&T Home Base. The blocked device will then
appear in the Blocked Wi-Fi devices list.
Blocked Wi-Fi Devices List: Lists any devices you have blocked
from having access to your AT&T Home Base. Note that since
these devices are not currently connected and are blocked from
connecting, they do not have an IP address. Instead, they are
identified by their MAC Address.
Unblock: Checking the "Unblock Access" box and clicking "Apply"
unblocks a previously blocked device, freeing it to connect to the
AT&T Home Base again. The unblocked device is deleted from
the Blocked Wi-Fi devices list and will reappear in the Connected
Devices list when it connects.
