SSID (Service Set Identifier)

The SSID is the ID used for the unique identification of a wireless network (WLAN) so

that this network can be distinguished from a parallel network. Within a WLAN, all the

network adapters must have the same SSID.

ì In the SSID field, select the ID of the partner you want to connect your PC to.

The default setting is ConnectionPoint.

The order for defining the SSID depends on the Network Mode of the WLAN:

u Infrastructure:

The SSID must be defined on the Access Point first. This SSID is then assigned auto-

matically to every network adapter registering with it.

u Ad Hoc:

It is important that all network adapters use the same SSID. The order of entry is irrel-

evant.
