Network name (SSID):

Type the appropriate SSID (Service Set Identifier) in the Network name
(SSID)
text box at the top of this dialog box.

The Network name field can contain a maximum of 32 characters. The
name assigned here is listed as a preferred network.

Important:

Keep in mind that the 7530 G2 will only communicate with access
points that are configured with the same SSID.

Ad Hoc And Infrastructure:
If you are using an Infrastructure network – one in which 7530 G2s must
pass data through an access point – leave the checkbox next to This is an
ad hoc network
blank.
If you are using an Ad Hoc network – a network in which 7530 G2s pass
data directly to other 7530 G2s without an access point – add a checkmark
in the checkbox next to This is an ad hoc network to enable Ad Hoc.
Encryption
WEP (Wired-Equivalent Privacy) encryption prevents others from acciden-
tally accessing your network. If you are not using encryption, you can
choose Disabled from the dropdown encryption menu. Otherwise, leave
this field as is.
