The SSID is the network name
shared among all devices in a
wireless network. The SSID must
be identical for all devices in
the wireless network. It is case-

32 characters (use any
keyboard character). For
added security, you should
change the default SSID
(linksys) to a unique name.

appropriate channel from the
list provided to correspond with
your network settings. All
devices in your wireless network
must broadcast on the same
channel in order to function
correctly.

JWireless SSID Broadcast. When
wireless clients survey the local
area for wireless networks to

setting, Enable. If you do not
want to broadcast the Router's
SSID, then select Disable.
KChange these settings as
described here and click the
