Wireless Settings (supported models)

set wireless option ( on off )

Administratively enables or disables the wireless interface.

set wireless network-id ssid { network_name }

Specifies the wireless network id for the Gateway. A unique ssid is generated for each Gateway. You must set your wireless clients to connect to this exact id, which can be changed to any 32-character string.

set wireless auto-channel mode { off at-startup continuous }

Specifies the wireless AutoChannel Setting for 802.11G models. AutoChannel is a feature that allows the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to determine the best channel to broadcast automatically. For details, see “Advanced” on page 56.

set wireless default-channel { 1...14 }

Specifies the wireless 2.4GHz sub channel on which the wireless Gateway will operate. For US operation, this is limited to channels 1–11. Other countries vary; for example, Japan is channel 14 only. The default channel in the US is 6. Channel selection can have a significant impact on performance, depending on other wireless activity in proximity to this AP. Channel selection is not necessary at the clients; clients will scan the available channels and look for APs using the same ssid as the client.

set wireless network-id closed-system { on off }

When this setting is enabled, a client must know the ssid in order to connect or even see the wireless access point. When disabled, a client may scan for available wireless access points and will see this one. Enable this setting for greater security. The default is on.

set wireless mode { both-b-and-g b-only g-only }

Specifies the wireless operating mode for connecting wireless clients: both-b-and-g, b-only, or g-only, and locks the Gateway in that mode.

NOTE:

If you choose to limit the operating mode to B or G only, clients using the mode you excluded will not be able to connect.

set wireless multi-ssid option { on off }

Enables or disables the multi-ssidfeature which allows you to add additional network identifiers (SSIDs or Network Names) for your wireless network. When enabled, you can specify up to three additional SSIDs with separate privacy settings for each. See below.
