4.1.1 Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
To identify your wireless network, SSID (Service Set Identifier) is used. You can change the
SSID to anything you want, or you can leave it unchanged. If there are other wireless networks
operating in your area, you will want to make sure that your SSID is unique to avoid interference.
To change the SSID, type in the SSID name that you want to use in the “SSID” field and click
“Apply”. The change is immediate. If you make a change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped
computers may also need to be reconfigured to be able to connect to your new network name.
Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on making this
change.
4.1.2 Selecting the Wireless Channel
Your router as default is pre-configured to choose the best wireless channel. It does this by
looking at the channels that are being used by Wi-Fi networks and choosing the best channel
accordingly. If needed this channel can be changed.
4.1.3 Wi-FI Mode
Your MV600 can support three different types of Wi-Fi network, types b, g and n. As default the
MV600 is set to support mixed mode (b/g/n). This setting ensures that nearly all Wi-Fi devices
will be able to connect to your MV600 without any issues
4.1.4 Securing your Wi-Fi Network
There are a few different ways you can maximize the security of your wireless network and
protect your data from prying eyes and ears.. Three encryption methods are available.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) – PSK
WPA 2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) – PSK
