SSID broadcast
If this option is enabled (default setting), the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable will send
the SSID in all data transmissions, and your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable's SSID will be
displayed on PCs that have a wireless network adapter. In this case eavesdroppers could
use the SSID to gain access to your network.
If you deactivate SSID broadcast, your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable's SSID will not be
displayed. This increases the protection against unauthorised access to your wireless
network. However, you must make a note of the SSID. You will need this to log on your
PC.

Transmission mode
This function is only shown in the window if the Super G transmission mode is deacti-
vated (see page 73).
The standard IEEE 802.11g permits data transfer up to 54 Mbit/s, IEEE 802.11b up
to 11 Mbit/s. For the best possible data transfer rates in your network select
IEEE 802.11g only. To operate clients with older wireless network adapters in your
network, select IEEE 802.11b/g (mixed).

Select the required sending power for your device.
We recommend that you select a sending power with a range to suit the spatial envi-
ronment of your local network. A much greater range makes it easier to eavesdrop
on your wireless data transmission.
