Network Name (SSID)

The SSID (Service Set IDentity) identifies the service set with which a wireless 
device is associated. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII 
characters) for the wireless LAN. 

Note: If you are configuring the ZyXEL Device from a computer 

connected to the wireless LAN and you change the 
ZyXEL Device’s SSID or security settings, you will lose 
your wireless connection when you press Apply to 
confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of 
your computer to match the ZyXEL Device’s new 
settings.
