Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)

 

 

 

 

 

 

(1)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID

is used.. The

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SSID is your network name.. The default network name of the Router is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Belkin_N_ADSL_” followed by six digits that are unique to your Router..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your network name will look something like “Belkin_N_ADSL_123456”..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can change this to anything you choose, or you can leave it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

unchanged.. Keep in mind, if you decide to change your wireless network

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

name, and there are other wireless networks operating in your area, your

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

network name needs to be different from other wireless networks that

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

may be operating in your area.. To change the SSID, type in the SSID

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that you want to use in the SSID field (1) and click “Apply Changes”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(2).. The change is immediate.. If you make a change to the SSID, your

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wireless-equipped computers may also need to be reconfigured to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

connect to your new network name.. Refer to the documentation of your

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

wireless network adapter for information on making this change..
