ESSID

Sets a unique network name for the SBG940 WLAN to distinguish between multiple WLANs in

 

the vicinity. If you select Disable ESSID Broadcast on the Wireless > SECURITY — advanced

 

Page, all clients on the WLAN must have the same ESSID (network name) as the SBG940. It

 

can be any alphanumeric, case-sensitive string up to 32 characters. The default is “Motorola.”

 

We strongly recommend not using the default. Never provide the ESSID to anyone who is not

 

authorized to use your WLAN.

Channel

Sets the wireless radio channel. You can change the channel if you encounter interference on

 

the default channel. The default is 1 (one), except in countries where the first channel

 

permitted for wireless operation is not one.
