Congratulations! You’ve successfully configured your AP

.

You should custom ize the 

SSID 

and 

Channel 

settings as needed. For added

security, you should enable WEP encryption and firewall following instructions
from the manual included in the CD.

The following describes the basic wireless configurations:

Access Point Name: 

The name used for identifying the Access Point.

SSID: 

Service Set ID. It uniquely identifies a logical network domain

name of your WLAN.

Network Type: 

An “

Open

” AP will periodically broadcast its SSID to

allow the wireless clients to recognize their presence. However, this
creates a security hole since any wireless station with SSID set to “any”
or got the broadcast may associate to your AP. It is recommended to
set this option to 

Closed 

to have your AP only accept stations whose

SSID are the same as this AP.

Country: 

Select the country where you use this AP. When the country

setting is changed, the AP scans only the legal frequency channels
allowed in that regulatory domain.

Channel ID: 

The radio frequency used for communication. Available

channels vary according to the regulations in the country you specified
in the 

Country 

drop-down list. Select a channel out of the available

cannels or use the default channel.
