Disable Limited View: If unchecked, users will be able to see a limited view of the 
network status. The password will still be required to change any network settings.

 

 

Email: Your email in case we need to contact you. We will not share this with 

others. Notification Email: The email address notifications will be sent to if 
enabled. You can list multiple email addresses, separated by spaces.

 

Email Alerts: Select this box to send notifications of network outages each hour to 

the email addresses you entered above.

refer to later. 

Configure > SSID 1, 2, 3...

 

Each device can broadcast four unique SSIDs that users can connect to. Each of 

these SSIDs are controlled independently in Network Manager. Typically users have a 
mix of public SSIDs - with splash pages, bandwidth throttling, DNS filtering and 
client isolation - and private SSIDs, with WPA Enterprise authentication and access 
to LAN resources and other clients. When we created your network, we set the first 
SSID to be public and the second SSID to be private, but you can adjust these any 
way you wish.

 

We’ll go through most of the features you may want to enable or change. You can 

also learn more about voucher access, pay networks and more by following the links 

at the end of this document. 

Common Settings

 

SSID name: The name you’d like users to see and connect to with their device. You 
can also check the box below to use each access point’s name for its SSID instead.

 

Enable: When selected, this SSID will broadcast on all access points in this network. 

When deselected, it won't broadcast but your settings will be saved.

 

Visible: When enabled, this SSID will advertise itself publicly so users can select it 

from their list of available networks. When disabled, users must enter the SSID name 
manually.

 

Band Use this to limit what bands the SSID is broadcast on. Note: Selecting the 'only' 

options in a network with single radio devices (like the OM2P) may cause the SSID to 
not be broadcast at all.

 

Authentication: Enable this to authenticate users with WPA-PSK or WPA-Enterprise 

at the time they connect to the SSID. This isn't required if you wish to authenticate 
users on a splash page.
