4.2.4. Wireless Configuration
You can choose “Enable” or “Disable” to enable or disable the wireless function. The default
setting is “enable”. If you chose the “Disable” status, the router will become a wired broadband
router without wireless function, so be careful when you choose this status.
Figure 4-10
SSID: SSID (Service Set Identifier) is your wireless network's name shared among all
points in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for all devices in the wireless
network. It is case-sensitive and must not exceed 32 characters. Make sure all points in the
wireless network have the same SSID. For added security, you should change the default
SSID to a unique name.
Region: Choose a correct region which fit your use environment.
Channel: Wireless router communicates to wireless cards in a particular channel, which
can reduce interference between different channels.
Authentication Type: Different authentication types use different encryption types, which
can encrypt wireless data to protect your wireless communication.
4.2.5. MAC Clone
The WAN port of router has a unique MAC address assigned by manufacturer; it called as
“Default MAC”. The “Clone MAC” is used for some special situations; For example, ISP only
allows certain MAC address to access the Internet, thus you can modify your WAN port’s MAC
address in accord with the requirement of ISP, avoiding ISP’s detection.
