SSID - In the SSID field, enter the name of your wireless network. The SSID must be identical for all devices in
the network. The default setting is linksys (all lowercase).
NOTE: An SSID is the network name shared by all devices in a wireless network. Your network's
SSID should be unique to your network and identical for all devices within the network.
Channel - Select the operating channel for your wireless network. All of your wireless devices will use this
channel to communicate.
Network Mode - From the Network Mode drop-down menu, select the wireless standards running on your
network. If you have both 802.11g and 802.11b devices in your network, keep the default setting, Mixed. If
you have only 802.11g devices, select G-Only. If you have only 802.11b devices, select B-Only. If you want to
disable your wireless network, select Disable.
Device Name - Enter a name for the Gateway in the Device Name field.

Privacy. WPA is a stronger security method than WEP, and WPA2 is a stronger version of WPA. Proceed to the
appropriate section for your security method.
If you do not want to use any wireless security method, select Disabled and then click the Next button.
