down menu. If you are not sure which channel to select,
keep the default, Auto.

Standard Channel

setting, then select the appropriate channel for your
wireless network. If you are not sure which channel to
select, then keep the default, Auto.

If 40MHz only is the Channel Width setting, then the
Standard Channel will be a secondary channel for
Wireless-N (2.4 GHz). If you selected a specific channel
for the Wide Channel setting, then the Standard Channel
options will be available. Select the appropriate channel
for your wireless network.

When wireless clients survey the local

area for wireless networks to associate with, they will
detect the SSID broadcast by the Router. To broadcast the
Router’s SSID, keep the default, Enabled. If you do not want
to broadcast the Router’s SSID, then select Disabled.
