Configuring the LAN Channel and Name

1 Click the Wireless Setup link to open the Wireless menu, then click the

Channel and SSID link to open the Channel and SSID screen:

2 Make the following changes to this screen as desired:

— Wireless Channel: Use the default shown in most cases. You may need

to change the channel if neighbors have wireless routers, or if you lose

your connection while using certain remote telephones.

— SSID

: Give your wireless LAN any name you desire. For best security, do

not use your name or address. The default SSID is arris54g.

— Broadcast SSID: Uncheck to prevent passers-by from seeing your

wireless LAN name in their connection utility. This provides only a small

amount of extra security, since many wireless utilities can learn an SSID

by listening to wireless traffic.

— Protected Mode: Set to On only if needed to overcome interference.

3 Click the Save button.
