The following table describes the general wireless LAN labels in this screen.

Table 13 Wireless

LABEL	DESCRIPTION
ESSID	The ESSID (Extended Service Set IDentity) identifies the Service Set with which a
	wireless station is associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP)
	must have the same ESSID. Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII
	characters) for the wireless LAN.
	Note: If you are configuring the G-1000 from a computer connected
	to the wireless LAN and you change the G-1000’s ESSID or WEP
	settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you press
	Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your
	computer to match the G-1000’s new settings.
Hide ESSID	Select this check box to hide the ESSID in the outgoing beacon frame so a station
	cannot obtain the ESSID through scanning using a site survey tool.
Choose Channel	Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region.
ID	To manually set the G-1000 to use a channel, select a channel from the drop-down
	list box. Click MAINTENANCE and then the Channel Usage tab to open the
	Channel Usage screen to make sure the channel is not already used by another AP
	or independent peer-to-peer wireless network.
	Refer to the Wizard Setup chapter for more information on channels.
RTS/CTS	(Request To Send) The threshold (number of bytes) for enabling RTS/CTS
Threshold	handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS
	handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC
	service data unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to
	zero turns on the RTS/CTS handshake. Enter a value between 0 and 2432.
