Here are descriptions of every setup item: SSID: BSSID: The Service Set Identifier of wireless access point or other network device. You can think it as the name of access point of wireless device. The MAC address of wireless access point or other network device. Unlike SSID, BSSID of every access point or network device is unique, and will not be the same with others. So you can identify a single access point or wireless device from others by BSSID, if they all have the same SSID. Signal: Shows the signal strength of access point or wireless device. Larger number means better radio strength, which often means you're not too far from that access point or wireless device. Channel: Shows the channel number that access point or wireless device uses. Encryption: Shows the encryption method that access point or wireless device uses. If the wireless access point does not enable encryption, you'll see 'None' displayed here. Authentication: Shows the authentication mode that access point or wireless device uses. If the wireless access point does not require authentication, you'll see 'Unknown' displayed here. 27
