Enter your wireless network settings on this page. You must specify
a common radio channel and SSID (Service Set ID) to be used by the
BARRICADE and all of its wireless clients. Be sure you configure all of its
clients to the same value. For security purposes, you should change the
default SSID immediately.

network. The SSID must be the same on the

BARRICADE and all of its wireless clients.

Enable or disable the broadcasting of the SSID. If you

disable broadcast of the SSID, only devices that have the

correct SSID can connect. This nullifies the wireless

network “discovery” feature of some products such as

Windows XP. (Default: Enable)

This device supports the following modes: 11g only, 11b

only, and 11b/g mixed mode.

(Default: 11b/g Mixed mode)
