¾SSID - Enter a value of up to 32 characters. The same name (SSID) must be assigned to all wireless devices in your network. The default SSID is TP-LINK_xxxxxx (xxxxxx indicates the last unique six characters of each device's MAC address), which can ensure your wireless network security. But it is recommended strongly that you change your networks name (SSID) to a different value. This value is case-sensitive. For example, TP-LINKis NOT the same as tp-link.
