 Broadcast Network Name (SSID):
By default, the Gateway broadcasts its network name. Wireless clients can then detect the presence of your network and
inform the users that this network is available.
Enabling SSID broadcast does not mean that everyone can connect to your network. They still need the
correct wireless network key (password) to connect to the Gateway network. It only informs them that your
network is present.
SSID broadcasting is required for WPS.
