Trek N300 Travel Router and Range Extender PR2000 4. Click the OK button. The BASIC Home screen displays. 5. Select BASIC > Wireless. 6. (Optional) Change the following wireless settings as needed. • Region. The location where the Trek is used. Select from the countries in the list. In Asia, the region is fixed to Asia and is not changeable. • Name (SSID). The SSID is also known as the wireless network name. Enter a 32-character (maximum) name in this field. This field is case-sensitive. The default SSID is randomly generated, and NETGEAR recommends that you do not change this setting. • Channel. The wireless channel the gateway uses. Enter a value from 1 through 13. (For products in the North America market, only Channels 1 through 11 can be operated.) Do not change the channel unless you experience interference (shown by lost connections or slow data transfers). If this happens, experiment with different channels to see which is the best. When you use multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different radio frequency channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between adjacent access points is five channels (for example, use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11). The channel can be changed only when the Trek is operating in wired WAN mode. For more information about connection modes, see Internet Setup on page 37. • Mode. Up to 300 Mbps is the default setting, which allows 802.11n and 802.11g wireless devices to join the network. The other settings are Up to 54 Mbps and Up to 145 Mbps. • Enable SSID Broadcast. This feature allows the Trek to broadcast its SSID so wireless stations can see this wireless name (SSID) in their scanned network lists. This check box is selected by default. To turn off the SSID broadcast, clear this check box. genie BASIC Settings 45
