 Click on the Basic link under the Wireless drop-down menu. This page will display the
current wireless settings such as SSID, Channel, Security and BSSID (MAC address).
• Radio: Choose to Enable or Disable the wireless radio.
• Mode: This drop-down list is fixed to WDS as this is the Wireless Distribution operating mode.
•
Band: Select the IEEE 802.11 mode from the drop-down list. For example, if you are sure
that the wireless network will be using only IEEE 802.11g clients, then it is recommended to
select 802.11g only instead of 2.4 GHz B+G which will reduce the performance of the
wireless network. You may also select 802.11B+G+N. If all of the wireless devices you want
to connect with this router can connect in the same transmission mode, you can improve
performance slightly by choosing the appropriate "Only" mode. If you have some devices that
use a different transmission mode, choose the appropriate "Mixed" mode.
•
ESSID#: This device allows up for four SSIDs, select the SSID# that you would like to configure from
the drop-down list.
 ESSID: The SSID is a unique named shared amongst all the points of the wireless network.
The SSID must be identical on all points of the wireless network and cannot exceed 32
characters.
 Click on the Apply button to save the changes.
