SSID
This is the name of wireless router. You
can type any alphanumerical characters
here, maximum 32 characters. SSID is
used to identify your own wireless router
from
others
when
there
are
other
wireless routers in the same area. Default
SSID is ‘default’, it’s recommended to
change the default SSID value to the one
which
is
meaningful
to
you,
like
myhome, office_room1, etc.
Channel Number
Please
select
a
channel
from
the
dropdown list of ‘Channel Number’,
available channel numbers are 1 to 13
for European countries, 1 to 11 for USA.
You can choose any channel number you
want to use, and almost all wireless
clients can locate the channel you’re
using
automatically
without
any
problem. However, it’s still useful to
remember the channel number you use,
some wireless client supports manual
channel number select, and this would
help in certain scenario when there is
some radio communication problem.
Associated Clients
Click ‘Show Active Clients’ button, then
an “Active Wireless Client Table” will
pop up. You can see the status of all
active
wireless
stations
that
are
connecting to the access point.
NOTE: If you don’t have special reason to limit the type of allowed
wireless client, it’s recommended to choose ‘2.4 GHz (B+G+N) to
maximize wireless client compatibility.
TIPS: You can try to change channel number to another one if you
think the data transfer rate is too slow. There could be some other
wireless routers using the same channel, which will disturb the radio
communication between wireless client and the wireless router.
