A MAC address is a 12-digit code assigned to a unique piece of hardware for identification. Some ISPs will require you to register a MAC address in order to access the Internet. If you do not wish to re-register the MAC address with your ISP, you may assign the MAC address you have currently registered with your ISP to the Router with the MAC Address Clone feature.

Network Mode  From this drop-down menu, you can select the wireless standards running on your network. If you have Wireless-G and Wireless-B devices in your network, keep the default, Mixed. If you have only Wireless-G devices, select Wireless-G Only. If you have only Wireless-B devices, select Wireless-B Only. If you do not have any wireless devices in your network, select

Disabled.

Network Name (SSID)  The SSID is the network name shared among all points in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for all devices in the wireless network. It is case-sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters (use any of the characters on the keyboard). Make sure this setting is the same for all points in your wireless network. For added security, you should change the default SSID (linksys) to a unique name.

Standard Channel  Select the appropriate channel for your wireless network. If you are not sure which channel to select, then keep the default, Auto.

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.
