the channel is set to 6. The Channel can be changed to

fit the channel setting for an existing wireless network or

to customize the wireless network. The

Auto Channel

setting can be selected to allow the DIR-600 to

choose the channel with the least amount of interference.

Use the drop-down menu to select the appropriate Transmission Rate in Mbits per second. Many users will want to use the

Enable Wi-Fi Multimedia to enjoy basic quality of service features. WMM prioritizes tra³c according to four access categories:

voice, video, best e²ort, and background.

Check this option if you would not like the SSID of your wireless network to be broadcasted by the DIR-600. If this option is

checked, the SSID of the DIR-600 will not be seen by Site Survey utilities so your wireless clients will have to know the SSID

of your DIR-600 in order to connect to it.
