Advanced Configuration

Standard Channel  If Standard - 20 MHz Channel is the Channel Width setting, then this setting will be available. Select the appropriate channel for your wireless network. If you are not sure which channel to select, then keep the default, Auto.

If Wide - 40MHz Channel is the Channel Width setting, then the Standard Channel will be a secondary channel for Wireless-N (2.4 GHz).

If you selected a specific channel for the Wide Channel setting, then the Standard Channel options will vary. Select the appropriate channel for your wireless network.

SSID Broadcast  When wireless clients survey the local area for wireless networks to associate with, they will detect the SSID broadcast by the Router. To broadcast the Router’s SSID, keep the default, Enabled. If you do not want to broadcast the Router’s SSID, then select Disabled.
