SSID

The Service Set Identifier (SSID) controls access to a given wireless network. This value MUST match the SSID of any/all Access Points that you want to commu- nicate with. If the value does not match, access to the system is not granted. The SSID can be up to 32 char- acters (case sensitive).

Network type (Infrastructure Mode)

This mode is used to set up a connection to a wired network, such as Ethernet or Token Ring. This mode requires an Access Point to gain access to the wired network.
