Enable Broadcast SSID
This feature can be used to improve the security of your
wireless network. When the checkbox is unchecked, the
Router will not broadcast the Service Area Name / SSID of
your wireless network. It will prevent unauthorized clients
from detecting your SSID and attempting to connect to your
network.
If you have a wireless client that can detect all the available
SSIDs in your area, your client will not list the Router SSID
when this feature is enabled.
We recommend that you install your wireless network with
this feature unchecked and then enable it once your have
set up the Router and wireless clients.
