NETGEAR RangeMax™ NEXT Wireless Router WNR834B User Manual
Viewing the Advanced Wireless Settings
To view the advanced wireless settings:
From the main menu of the browser interface, under Advanced, click Wireless Settings.

The available settings in this menu are:
•Enable Wireless Router Radio
If you disable the wireless router radio, wireless devices cannot connect to the WNR834B.
•Enable SSID Broadcast
If you disable broadcast of the SSID, only devices that know the correct SSID can connect. Disabling SSID broadcast nullifies the wireless network ‘discovery’ feature of some products, such as Windows XP.
•Automatically switch channels to avoid interference
Select this checkbox to have the WNR834B router periodically survey the wireless environment to ensure that it is using the clearest channel. If a clearer channel is available, it might automatically switch channels.
Note: After the router switches channels, there could be a slight delay while your 
wireless computers reconnect to the router. To avoid this possibility, leave this
checkbox unselected.
