This option turns off and on the wireless connection feature of the router. If this is not enabled, you cannot connect using a wireless network adapter.

When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the list (unless Visibility Status is set to Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the SSID.

The Invisible option allows you to hide your wireless network. When this option is set to Visible, your wireless network name is broadcast to anyone within the range of your signal. If you’re not using encryption then they could connect to your network. When Invisible mode is enabled, you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID) manually to connect to the network.

With this box selected, the router will automatically choose the best channel.

Select the channel with the clearest signal.

By default the transmission rate will automatically select the fastest rate. You have the option of selecting the speed if necessary.

If all of your devices can connect in 802.11g Mode then leave the setting at 802.11g only. If you have some devices that are 802.11b than you can change the mode to Mixed.

Super G Turbo Modes must use channel 6 for transmission and 802.11 Mode must be set to 802.11g.

Super G without Turbo: Performance enhancing features such as Packet Bursting, FastFrames, and Compression.

Super G with Static Turbo: Mode is not backwards compatible with non-Turbo (legacy) devices. Static turbo mode is always on and is only enabled when all devices on the wireless network are Super G with Static Turbo enabled.

Super G with Dynamic Turbo: Mode is backwards compatible with non-Turbo (legacy) devices. Dynamic Turbo mode is only enabled when all devices on the wireless network are Super G with Dynamic Turbo enabled.
