Description
Wireless Interfaces
Displays the unique SSID for the DDW365 or uses the
default. Refer to
Understanding Default Values and Logins on
page 8
for more information on the SSID.
Wireless
Displays the wireless radio’s status, Enabled or Disabled.
Country
Defines the country where this device is used. The default
value is Q2.
Output Power
Output power setup can be one of the following 4 options:
25%, 50%, 75%, or 100%.
802.11 Band
Displays the 802.11 band (2.4GHz).
802.11 n-mode
Sets the wireless networking standard. Select Auto to use
802.11 n mode when possible. This mode has a significant
increase in the maximum raw OSI physical layer data rate
from 54 Mbit/s to a maximum of 600 Mbit/s with the use of
four spatial streams when at a channel width of 40 MHz.
802.11 N Support Required
Defines whether 802.11n support is required (on) or not (off).
On forces the gateway to 802.11n mode and clients must
support 802.11n.
Bandwidth
Sets the bandwidth to 20MHz or 40MHz. For 40 MHz, set the
sideband to lower or upper 20MHz. 40 MHz channels double
the channel width. This allows doubling the PHY data rate
over a single 20 MHz channel.
Sideband for Control Channel
Only when using 40MHz Bandwidth should you choose the
Lower or Upper 20MHz.

Scanning for Wireless Access Points (APs)
You can search for wireless access points and display the results in a new window.
Steps
To search for wireless access points:
1.
Click
Scan Wireless APs
at the bottom of the Wireless Radio screen. Results are
displayed in a new window.
2. Click
Refresh
to update the results.
Control Channel
Selects a specific channel to deploy the wireless network.
This allows you to set the operating frequency/channel
depending on your particular region. Channel selection can
have an impact on wireless networking performance. Control
Channel is set to
Auto
by default. For more information, refer
to
Selecting a Wireless Channel on page 85
Regulatory Mode
Defines whether Regulatory Mode is set to off, 802.11d, or
802.11h.
TPC Mitigation (dB)
Defines the transmitter power control (TPC) mitigation setting
as 0 (off), 2, 3, or 4.
OBSS Coexistence
Enables or disables overlapping BSS coexistence.
STBC Tx
Sets the space-time block codes (STBCs) for the transmitting
antenna.
Apply
Saves all screen changes when clicked.
Restore Wireless Defaults
Restores the factory default settings for wireless
configurations when clicked.
Scan Wireless APs
Scans for other wireless access points and displays channel,
encryption, SSID, RSSI levels, and other information.

Using the Primary Network Option
Use the
Primary Network
option to configure a variety of wireless security settings.
Steps
To configure wireless security options:
1.
Click
Wireless
from the main menu.
2. Click
Primary Network
from the left side menu.
Field descriptions are listed below the
screen example.
Wireless default values are discussed in
Understanding Default Values and Logins on
page 8
.
Label
Description
Network Name
Displays the name of the wireless network (SSID) broadcast
by the access point.
Security Mode
Displays the encryption method used.
Mode
Displays the mode of the wireless access point: Possible
modes are:
Master – Communicates with associated wireless cards
that are in managed mode. Appears as a normal access
point with an SSID and channel. Network
communications, such as authentication, conflict, and
duplicate packets are managed by the wireless card.
Managed – Communicates with an associated master,
not directly with another managed AP. Wireless cards
connect to the master network and change their channel
to match. The master must accept the credentials of the
managed network for it to be associated.
Ad-hoc – Communicates directly with another wireless
network. Network cards must be in range and use the
same name and channel.
Monitor – Communicates in observation mode and does
not transmit. Can be used for troubleshooting wireless
links or checking bandwidth usage in the area.
PHY Mode
Displays the physical transceivers (PHY) layer method used.
RSSI
Displays the received signal strength (RSSI) of the wireless
access points in range of the device. Lower negative numbers
(for example, -1 to -65) indicate the access point is closer.
Greater negative numbers (for example, -66 to -95) indicate
the access point is farther away.
Channel
Displays the channel on which the wireless cable modem is
operating.
BSSID
Displays the MAC address for the nearby wireless access
points.

Primary Network
Enables or disables the primary network.
Network Name (SSID)
Defines a unique SSID for the DDW365 or uses the default.
Refer to
Understanding Default Values and Logins on page 8
for more information on the SSID.
Closed Network
Hides the selected SSID when enabled so it is not visible to
wireless clients unless manually set up on the client. If
disabled, the SSID is visible. Refer to
Enabling a Closed
Network on the Primary Network on page 73
to set up a
closed network.

AP Isolate
Prevents wireless client stations from communicating with
each other when enabled.
WPA
Enables or disables the Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
security protocol. WPA is a subset of the IEEE 802.11i
standard. Key differences between WPA and WEP are user
authentication and improved data encryption. Setting WPA
alone with a pre-shared key requires a RADIUS or TACACS
server for authentication. This method is mostly used in large
enterprise implementations.
WPA-PSK
Enables or disables WPA Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK). If you
do not have an external RADIUS server, use WPA-PSK,
which requires a single (identical) password entered into
wireless gateway and wireless client. As long as the
passwords match, a client is granted access to the wireless
LAN. This is the default residential subscriber setting and
uses TKIP encryption.
WPA2
Enables or disables WPA2. This advanced protocol is
certified through Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA2 program and
implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In particular,
it has an AES-based algorithm (CCMP) that is considered
fully secure. Setting WPA2 alone with a pre-shared key
requires a RADIUS or TACACS server for authentication.
This method is mostly used in large enterprise
implementations.
WPA2-PSK
Enables or disables WPA2-PSK. If you do not have an
external RADIUS server, use WPA2-PSK, which requires a
single (identical) password entered into wireless gateway and
wireless client. As long as the passwords match, a client is
granted access to the wireless LAN. This is the
recommended residential subscriber option. It is more secure
than WPA-PSK and uses AES encryption.
WPA/WPA2 Encryption
Sets WPA/WPA2 encryption to AES or TKIP+AES. The
default is AES.
WPA Pre-Shared Key
Displays (checked) or hides (unchecked) the WPA key. The
encryption mechanisms for WPA and WPA-PSK are the
same, except that WPA-PSK uses a simple common
password instead of user-specific credentials.
Show Key
Displays the pre-shared key when checked. The pre-shared
key for the DDW365 is the 13 characters of the modem’s
serial number.
RADIUS Server
Defines the IP address of the RADIUS server, if used.
RADIUS Port
Defines a RADIUS port number when WPA or 802.1x network
authentication is selected.
RADIUS Key
Defines the RADIUS Key when WPA or 802.1x network
authentication is selected.
Group Key Rotation Interval
Allows the device to generate the best possible random
group key and update all the key-management capable
stations periodically.
