SSID

This is the name of the wireless network. You can type any

alphanumerical characters here, maximum 32 characters. SSID is used

to identify your own wireless router from others when there are multiple

wireless routers in the same area. The default SSID is ‘airlink101’; it’s

recommended to change it to a name that you can identify, such as

myhome, office_room1, etc.

Channel

Number Select a channel from the dropdown list of ‘Channel Number’ for

broadcasting. You can choose any channel number you want to use, and

almost all wireless clients can locate the channel you’re using

automatically without any problem. However, it’s still useful to remember

the channel number you use, some wireless client supports manual

channel number selecting, and this would help in certain scenario when

there is some radio communication problem.

Associated Clients Click “Show Active Clients” button, then an “Active Wireless Client Table”

will pop up. You can see the status of all active wireless stations that are

connecting to the access point.

Step 5 Set up Wireless Security for your router.

WPA2(Mixed) is the most secured encryption mode for general users. WEP is the most

common encryption but the least secured. It is recommended to use WPA2(Mixed) for your

wireless security if all wireless devices on your network support WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK.
