The IEEE 802.11n interface includes configuration options for radio signal
characteristics and wireless security features. The 3G Mobile Wirelss Router’s radio
can operate in six modes, mixed 802.11b/g/n, mixed 802.11b/g, mixed 802.11g/n,
802.11n only, 802.11bonly, or 802.11g only. Note that 802.11g is backward
compatible with 802.11b, and 802.11n is backward compatible with 802.11b/g at
slower data transmit rates.

The 3G Mobile Wireless Router supports two virtual access point (VAP) interfaces.
One VAP is the primary (Network Name SSID), and the other one is referred to as
"Multiple SSID1." Each VAP functions as a separate access point, and can be
configured with its own Service Set Identification (SSID) and security settings.
However, most radio signal parameters apply to all VAP interfaces.
Traffic to specific VAPs can be segregated based on user groups or application traffic.
All VAPs can have up to 64 wireless clients, whereby the clients associate with these
VAPs the same as they would with a physical access point.

The Basic Settings page allows you to configure the wireless network name
(Service Set Identifier or SSID) and set the wireless security method.
Click on ―Wireless Settings,‖ followed by ―Basic‖.
