Wireless Setup

 Name(SSID)

(Service Set IDentity) The SSID identifies the Service Set with which a wireless 

station is associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must 

have the same SSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII 

characters) for the wireless LAN. 

Note: If you are configuring the G-1000 v2 from a computer 

connected to the wireless LAN and you change the G-1000 v2’s 
SSID or WEP 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 G-1000 v2’s 
new settings.
