Setup Wizard>>Wireless Settings
Network ID (SSID): The SSID is the network name used to identify a wireless network. The SSID must be the
same for all devices in the wireless network (i.e. in the same BSS). Several access points on a network can
have the same SSID. The SSID length is up to 32 characters. The default SSID is “airlive”.
Disable SSID Broadcasting: An access point periodically broadcasts its SSID along with other information,
which allows client stations to learn its existence while searching for access points in a wireless network.
Check Disable SSID Broadcasting if you do not want the device to broadcast the SSID.
Regulatory Domain: Please make sure that your regulatory domain matches your region. The default value
is “United Kingdom”.
WLAN Mode: Select “11g/b”, “11g only”, “11b”, “11a”, “SuperG” or “SuperA”. The wireless module is IEEE
802.11g and 802.11b compliant, and choosing “11g/b” allows both 802.11b and 802.11g client stations to get
associated. However, choosing “11g” allows only 802.11g client stations to get associated and get better
overall performance. 802.11a is not compliant with either 802.11b or 802.11g; choosing “11a” only allows
802.11a client stations to get associated.
Channel: Select a channel from the drop down menu. All devices in a BSS must use the same channel. You
can select Auto to let the system pick up the best channel for you.
The available channels are different from country to country and for different WLAN
mode.
Security Policy: You can select different security policy to provide association authentication and/or data
encryption.
