Broadcast ESSID

Enable or disable ESSID broadcast. When

 

 

enabled, the ESSID will be visible to clients as

 

 

an available Wi‐Fi network. When disabled,

 

 

the ESSID will not be visible as an available

 

 

Wi‐Fi network to clients – clients must

 

 

manually enter the ESSID in order to connect.

 

 

A hidden (disabled) ESSID is typically more

 

 

secure than a visible (enabled) SSID.

 

Channel Number

Select a wireless radio channel or use the

 

 

default “Auto” setting from the drop‐down

 

 

menu.

 

Wireless Clients

Click “Show list” to display a new window

 

 

showing information about wireless clients.

 

 

Please disable any pop‐up blockers if you

 

 

have difficulty using this function.

Wireless Security:

 

Select an encryption type from the drop‐down menu:

“WPA Pre‐shared Key” is the recommended and most secure encryption type.

III‐3‐5‐1‐1. Disable

Encryption is disabled and no password/key is required to connect to the BR‐6228nS V2/nC V2.

Disabling wireless encryption is not recommended. When disabled, anybody within range can connect to your device’s SSID.
