Click Network > Wireless LAN to open the General screen. Figure 47 Network > Wireless LAN > General Chapter 7 Wireless LAN The following table describes the general wireless LAN labels in this screen. Table 31 Network > Wireless LAN > General LABEL Enable Wireless LAN Name(SSID) Hide SSID Channel Selection DESCRIPTION Click the check box to activate wireless LAN. (Service Set IDentity) The SSID identifies the Service Set with which a wireless station is associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must have the same SSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII characters) for the wireless LAN. Select this check box to hide the SSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station cannot obtain the SSID through scanning using a site survey tool. Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region. Select a channel from the drop-down list box. The options vary depending on the frequency band and the country you are in. Auto Channel Selection Operating Channel Channel Width Refer to the Connection Wizard chapter for more information on channels. This option is only available if Auto Channel Selection is disabled. Select this check box for the NBG4115 to automatically choose the channel with the least interference. Deselect this check box if you wish to manually select the channel using the Channel Section field. This displays the channel the NBG4115 is currently using. Select whether the NBG4115 uses a wireless channel width of 20 or 40 MHz. A standard 20 MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 150Mbps whereas a 40MHz channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300 Mbps. Because not all devices support 40 MHz channels, select Auto 20/40MHz to allow the NBG4115 to adjust the channel bandwidth automatically. NBG4115 User's Guide 81
