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. 

Hide SSID

Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station 

cannot obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool.

Channel

Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region. 
Select a channel from the drop-down list box. The options vary depending on
