LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Enable 
Wireless LAN
Click the check box to activate wireless LAN.
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 Prestige from a computer connected 
to the wireless LAN and you change the Prestige’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 Prestige’s new settings.
Hide SSID
Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station 
cannot obtain the SSID through passive scanning using a site survey tool.
Channel 
Selection
Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region. 
Select a channel from the drop-down list box. 
Refer to the Connection Wizard chapter for more information on channels.
Apply
Click Apply to save your changes back to the Prestige.
Reset
Click Reset to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
See the rest of this chapter for information on the other labels in this screen.

any data encryption.
