Wireless:
Check the box if you do not want the SSID to be broadcast by the DAP-1160. This prevents the SSID from being seen
by site survey utilities, so any wireless clients will have to be pre-congured with the SSID of the DAP-1160 in order to
connect to it.
In AP mode, the DAP-1160 acts as a central connection point for any computer (client) that has an 802.11g or backward-compatible
802.11b wireless network adapter and is within range of the AP.
