SSID | This is the name of the wireless network. You can type any |
| alphanumerical characters here, maximum 32 characters. SSID is used |
| to identify your own wireless router from others when there are multiple |
| wireless routers in the same area. The default SSID is ‘airlink101’; it’s |
| recommended to change it to a name that you can identify, such as |
| myhome, office_room1, etc. |
Channel Number | Select a channel from the dropdown list of ‘Channel Number’ for |
| broadcasting. You can choose any channel number you want to use, and |
| almost all wireless clients can locate the channel you’re using |
| automatically without any problem. However, it’s still useful to remember |
| the channel number you use, some wireless client supports manual |
| channel number selecting, and this would help in certain scenario when |
| there is some radio communication problem. |
Associated Clients | Click “Show Active Clients” button, then an “Active Wireless Client Table” |
| will pop up. You can see the status of all active wireless stations that are |
| connecting to the access point. |
