3.3.2Network Name

All clients on the local wireless network share a common Service Set IDentifier (SSID) or network name. This name is required to establish connection between the Ericsson W3x and the wireless client(s), and to distinguish the wireless network from any other(s) that may be in use nearby. Only devices configured with the same network name as the one set on the Ericsson W3x can obtain access to it.

Figure 15 – Wireless LAN: Network Name (SSID) page

The network name is case-sensitive (distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters) and can be changed to any combination of numbers (0 – 9), letters (a – z), and hyphens (-) with a maximum length of 32 characters.

If the “Enable SSID broadcast” option is selected, your local wireless client(s) will find the network name when scanning the air. If not, the network name is hidden and has to be manually provided to the wireless client(s).

If you want to change the preconfigured network name (MBR), type a new name in the “Network name (SSID):” field and also select if the SSID shall be hidden or not.
