Setting up an SSID

checkbox.

. But if the wireless clients have the correct SSID, they can still connect to your

WL-AM604g.

Default

4. Press

Setting up a wireless security

To protect your wireless network, you need to set up a security mechanism at both

WL-AM604g and the wireless clients.

wireless clients. WL-AM604g supports the following authentication methods:

Under the Open mode, any IEEE802.11b/g wireless client can connect to

your wireless network.

802.1X:

802.1X uses RADIUS (Remote Access Dial-Up User Service) server

to authenticate wireless clients with a username and password. It can

authenticate users with different levels of access rights.
