FIELD

DESCRIPTION

ESSID

The ESSID (Extended Service Set IDentity) identifies the AP to which the
wireless stations associate. Wireless stations associating to the AP must have
the same ESSID. Enter a descriptive name of up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII
characters.

Hide ESSID

Press [SPACE BAR] and select Yes to hide the ESSID in the outgoing data
frame so an intruder cannot obtain the ESSID through passive scanning.

Channel ID

Press [SPACE BAR] to select a channel. This allows you to set the operating
frequency/channel depending on your particular region.

RTS Threshold

Setting this attribute to zero turns on the RTS/CTS handshake. Enter a value
between 0 and 2432.

Fragment Threshold

This is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value
between 256 and 2432.

WEP Encryption

Select Disable to allow wireless stations to communicate with the access points
without any data encryption.
Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to enable data encryption.

Default Key

Enter the key number (1 to 4) in this field. Only one key can be enabled at any
one time. This key must be the same on the ZyXEL device and the wireless
stations to communicate.
