two separate AOSS networks at the same time, as this may cause unexpected configurations.

If an undesired client has connected via AOSS, you may forcibly disconnect it from the advanced configuration menu.

Basic

The “Basic” tab lets you make changes to the wireless network settings - wire- less network name (SSID), radio and operating channel.

Wireless Radio

Select Disable to turn off wireless networking, or select the type of wireless network you are setting up: Mixed (with both 802.11b and 802.11g clients), B-Only (with only 802.11b clients), or G-Only (with only 802.11g clients). Us- ing the correct setting here ensures that the network will work as efficiently as possible.

SSID

Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)

To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID (Service Set Identi- fier) is used. The default SSID of the Router is “BUFFALO”. You can change this to anything you want to or you can leave it unchanged. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area, you will want to make sure that your SSID is unique (does not match that of another wireless network in the area). To change the SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the SSID field and click “Apply” . The change is immediate. If you make a change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers may also need to be reconfigured to connect to your new network name. Refer to the documentation of your wire- less network adapter for information on making this change.
