• Enable SSID Broadcast. This setting allows the modem router to broadcast its SSID so

and click Apply.
• Name (SSID). The SSID is also known as the wireless network name. Enter a
32-character (maximum) name in this field.
This field is case-sensitive. The default SSID
is randomly generated, and there is typically no need to change it.
• Region.
The location where the modem router is used. It might not be legal to operate
the modem router in a region other than the regions listed.
• Channel.
The wireless channel used by the gateway: 1 through 13. Do not change the
channel unless you experience interference (shown by lost connections or slow data
transfers). If this happens, experiment with different channels to see which is the best.
• Mode. Up to 145 Mbps is the default and allows 802.1
1n and 802.11g wireless devices to
join the network. g & b supports up to 54 Mbps. Up to 300 Mbps supports up to 300
Mbps.
