Service Set Identier (SSID) is the name designated
for a specic wireless local area network (WLAN). The
SSID’s factory default setting is dlink. The SSID can
be easily changed to connect to an existing wireless
network or to establish a new wireless network.
Enable or Disable SSID visibility. Enabling this feature
broadcasts the SSID across the network, thus making
it visible to all network users.
Enabling this feature automatically selects the channel
that will provide the best wireless performance. This
feature is not supported in WDS with AP mode. The
channel selection process only occurs when the AP
is booting up.
All devices on the network must share the same
channel. To change the channel, use the drop-down
menu to make the desired selection. (Note: The
wireless adapters will automatically scan and match
the wireless settings.)
