Wi-Fi Settings
The Wi-Fi Settings page allows you to enable or disable broadcasting the network name.
➤ Choose Wi-Fi > Settings from the menu bar.
The Wi-Fi Settings page opens.
Broadcast Network Name (also known as SSID broadcast) causes the device to send the network
name (SSID) out where it can be picked up by nearby computers. This is what you see when you
“View Available Wireless Networks” from a Windows PC or click the AirPort menu bar icon on a Mac.
Disabling network name (SSID) broadcasting provides additional security, but you might need to
re-enable it if you lose your automatic connection.
➤ Select or deselect the check box to enable or disable broadcasting the network name (SSID)
and then click Apply.
