Parameter
Meaning
Wireless Radio
Determines whether to allow wireless communication. If this is 
unchecked, then no wireless connections will be allowed.
SSID
The SSID may contain 1 - 32 alphanumeric characters.
Wireless Channel
Sets a channel (a range of frequencies) for wireless connections. 
With Auto Channel selected, the AirStation will automatically use 
the best available channel.
High-Throughput Mode
High-throughput mode uses triple the normal frequency range, 
80 MHz instead of 20 MHz.  In uncongested areas this can increase 
performance. To use High-throughput mode, set the Bandwidth to 
80 MHz.
Broadcast SSID
If [Allow] is checked, then the AirStation will respond to SSID 
searches from wireless devices by broadcasting its SSID. If [Allow] is 
unchecked, then the AirStation ignores SSID searches from wireless 
devices.
