The Network Name or SSID (ESSID) window is displayed in the right frame. Devices must use the same SSID, for example ANY, before they can communicate with or through the Gateway. The default SSID is ANY, which means that if the SSID of your device is something other than ANY(or is blank), you cannot access this Gateway through a wireless connection. The SSID can have up to 13 characters.
