Reference Manual for the Model Wireless ADSL Firewall Router DG834G

Wireless Configuration 4-5

Note: This value is case sensitive. For example, Wireless is not the same as wireless.

— Region. Select your region from the drop-down list. This field displays the region of

operation for which the wireless interface is intended. It may not be legal to operate the

router in a region other than the region shown here.

— Channel. This field determines which operating frequency will be used. It should not be

necessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems with

another nearby access point.

— Mode. The default is "g & b", which allows both "g" and "b" wireless stations to access

this device. “g only” allows only 802.11g wireless stations to be used. “b only” allows

802.11b wireless stations; 802.11g wireless stations can still be used if they can operate in

802.11b mode.

• Wireless Access Point.

— Enable Wireless Access Point. This field lets you turn off or turn on the wireless access

point built in to the router. The wireless icon on the front of the router will also display the

current status of the Wireless Access Point to let you know if it is disabled or enabled. The

wireless access point must be enabled to allow wireless stations to access the Internet.

— Allow Broadcast of Name (SSID). If enabled, the SSID is broadcast to all Wireless

Stations. Stations which have no SSID (or a "null" value) can then adopt the correct SSID

for connections to this Access Point.

— Wireless Isolation. If enabled, Wireless Stations will not be able to communicate with

each other or with Stations on the wired network. This feature should normally be

disabled.

• Wireless Station Access List.

— By default, any wireless computer that is configured with the correct wireless network

name or SSID will be allowed access to your wireless network. For increased security, you

can restrict access to the wireless network to only specific computers based on their MAC

addresses. Click Setup Access List to display the Wireless Station Access List menu.
