Reference Manual for the Integrated ADSL Modem and Wireless Router with Voice, Model
The following parameters are in the Wireless Settings menu:
•Wireless Network.
—Name (SSID). The Service Set ID, also known as the wireless network name. Enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The same Name (SSID) must be assigned to all wireless devices in your network. The default SSID is NETGEAR, but NETGEAR strongly recommends that you change your network Name to a different value.
Note: This value is case sensitive. For example, Wireless is not the same as wireless.
—Region. Select your country/region from the
Note: In the USA, the Region is preset according to regulatory requirements and cannot be changed. In other areas, you can and must set the Region. It may not be legal to operate the wireless access point in a region other than one
of those identified in this field.
—Channel. This field determines which operating frequency will be used. It should not be necessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems with another nearby access point.
—Mode. The default is "g & b", which allows both "g" and "b" wireless stations to access this device. “g only” allows only 802.11g wireless stations to be used. “b only” allows 802.11b wireless stations; 802.11g wireless stations can still be used if they can operate in 802.11b mode.
•Wireless Access Point.
—Enable Wireless Access Point. This field lets you turn off or turn on the wireless access point built in to the modem router. The wireless icon on the front of the modem router will also display the current status of the Wireless Access Point to let you know if it is disabled or enabled. The wireless access point must be enabled to allow wireless stations to access the Internet.
—Allow Broadcast of Name (SSID). If enabled, the SSID is broadcast to all Wireless Stations. Stations which have no SSID (or a "null" value) can then adopt the correct SSID for connections to this Access Point.
