Software Manual 59

Network Tab

Wi-Fi LAN Interface

Enable WLAN Interface: Select YES to enable the Wi-Fi interface.

Wireless Mode: Select “Access Point” if clients will connect to this device to obtain an address or “Client” if this device

will be connecting to a network with another device acting as the access point. Most users should choose “Access

Point” here.

IP Address (Required): The wireless bridge IP Address is entered in this field. The IP Address identifies a device on the

TCP/IP network. Every device on a network must have a unique address. The range of valid addresses for a given net-

work and broadcast is determined by the value of the Netmask. Some addresses are reserved for special uses such as

network and broadcast. Your Network Administrator should be able to provide an appropriate value. The default set-

ting for this field is 192.168.1.1.

For example, if a netmask is 255.255.255.0 and the IP address assigned to the device is 192.168.1.3, then the range of

valid addresses will be 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.254 as 192.168.1.0 is the value reserved for the network and

192.168.255 is the value reserved for the broadcast address.

Netmask (Required): Enter the desired Netmask for the wireless bridge interface. The default setting is 255.255.255.0.

Your Network Administrator should be able to provide an appropriate value for this field.

SSID (Required): The SSID is a unique name for the wireless network. It is case sensitive and must not exceed 32 char-

acters. All wireless devices in your network must use the same SSID. Verify that the correct SSID is being used and click

the “Apply” button to set it.

Channel: Select the channel from the drop-down list that corresponds with your network settings. The available

choices are between 1 and 11. All points in your wireless network must use the same channel in order to function cor-

rectly. The “Auto” option allows the chipset to select the channel on its own. Verify that the correct channel is selected

and click the “Apply” button to set it.

Broadcast SSID: Allows the SSID to be broadcast on the network. Enabling this option makes it easier for clients to find

the access point, but also allow attackers to know the name of your network. Select “Enable” to broadcast. Select

“Disable” to increase network security and prevent the SSID from being seen on network PCs.
