Check the box if you do not want the SSID of your wireless network to be broadcasted by the DAP-1360. If checked, the

SSID of the DAP-1360 will not be seen by Site Survey utilities so your wireless clients will have to know the SSID of your

DAP-1360 in order to connect to it.

Refer to page 73 for more information regarding the wireless security.

Enable the Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature.

Locking the wireless security settings prevents the settings from being changed by any new external user using its PIN.

Devices can still be added to the wireless network using Wi-Fi Protected Setup. It is still possible to change wireless network

settings with Manual Wireless Network Setup, Wireless Network Setup Wizard, or an existing external WLAN Manager user.

Create a random number that is a valid PIN. This becomes the access point’s PIN. You can then copy this PIN to the user

interface of the user.
