• Use  the  Scheduling screen (

Every wireless network must follow these basic guidelines.

• Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use the same SSID.

The SSID is the name of the wireless network. It stands for Service Set IDentity.

• If two wireless networks overlap, they should use different channels.

Like radio stations or television channels, each wireless network uses a specific 

channel, or frequency, to send and receive information.

• Every wireless client in the same wireless network must use security compatible 

with the AP.
Security stops unauthorized devices from using the wireless network. It can also 

protect the information that is sent in the wireless network.

The following sections introduce different types of wireless security you can set up 
in the wireless network.

Normally, the AP acts like a beacon and regularly broadcasts the SSID in the area. 
You can hide the SSID instead, in which case the AP does not broadcast the SSID.
