DescriptionField
network but limits 802.11ac devices to function at up to
600 Mbps.
•
Up to 1300 Mbps. Performance mode.This mode allows
802.11ac, 802.11na, and 802.11a devices to join the
network and allows 802.11ac devices to function at up to
1300 Mbps.This mode is the default mode.
By default, the modem router broadcasts its SSID so that WiFi
stations can detect the WiFi name (SSID) in their scanned
Enable SSID Broadcast
network lists.To turn off the SSID broadcast, clear the Enable
SSID Broadcast check box.Turning off the SSID broadcast
provides additional WiFi security, but users must know the SSID
to be able to join the WiFi network of the modem router.
Security Options
This information applies to the 5 GHz WiFi network.
NETGEAR recommends that you do not change your preset security settings (WPA2-
PSK [AES]).
Note
If you must change the WiFi security, select one of the following WiFi security options for the modem
router’s WiFi network:
•
None. An open WiFi network that does not provide any security. Any WiFi device can join the
network. NETGEAR recommends that you do not use an open WiFi network.
•
WPA2-PSK [AES].This option is the default setting. This type of security enables WiFi devices
that support WPA2 to join the modem router’s 5 GHz WiFi network. If you did not change the
passphrase, the default passphrase displays. The default passphrase is printed on the product
label (see Bottom Panel Product Label on page 17). WPA2 provides a secure connection but
some older WiFi devices do not detect WPA2 and support only WPA. If your network includes
such older devices, select WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] security.
NETGEAR recommends that you do not change the default passphrase. If you must change the
passphrase, in the Passphrase field, enter a phrase of 8 to 63 characters.To join the modem
router’s WiFi network, a user must enter this passphrase.
•
WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES].This type of security enables WiFi devices that support
either WPA or WPA2 to join the modem router’s 5 GHz WiFi network. However, WPA-PSK [TKIP]
is less secure than WPA2-PSK [AES] and limits the speed of WiFi devices to 54 Mbps.
