Wireless Main Network Name (SSID):

The main SSID ‘Station Set Identifier’ for your wireless network; replace with name of your choice. All stations must be configured with the correct SSID to access the WLAN. If the SSID does not match with the wireless client, it will not be able to join the network. Min one character, max 32.

If you do not check “Hide Wireless Main Network” item, the router will periodically broadcasts its SSID to allow the wireless clients within the range to recognize its presence. This can create a security hole since any wireless clients which receives the broadcast may be able to gain unauthorised access to your network. Min one character, max 32.

Wireless Guest Network Name (SSID):

The Wireless Guest Network Name acts as a secondary SSID. It can be used to allow guests to access your wireless network, using different security settings to those used for the Wireless Main Network Name. If the SSID does not match with the wireless client, it will not be able to join the network.

If you do not check “Hide Wireless Main Network” item, the router will periodically broadcasts its SSID to allow the wireless clients within the range to recognize its presence. This can create a security hole since any wireless clients which receives the broadcast may be able to gain unauthorised access to your network. Min one character, max 32.
