Again, as a reminder, it is recommended that your 802.11A/G ACCESS POINT should
be assigned a static IP address in order to make it easy for you to manage the device later
on.
3.1.3 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 FCC.
WLAN Mode: 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.
