NETGEAR ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point WG302v2 Reference Manual
Basic Installation and Configuration 2-11
v1.0, May 2006
The Wireless Settings page options are discussed below:
• Turn Radio On. On by default, you can also turn off the radio to disable access through this
device. This can be helpful for configuration, network tuning, or troubleshooting activities.
• Wireless Network Name (SSID). The SSID is also known as the wireless network name.
Enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. In a setting where there is more than one
wireless network, different wireless network names provide a means for separating the traffic.
Any device you want to participate in a particular wireless network will need to use the SSID.
The WG302v2 default SSID is NETGEAR. The following list contains additional
information about SSIDs:
– A group of Wireless Stations and a single access point, all using the same ID (SSID), form
a Basic Service Set (BSS).
– Using the same SSID is essential. Devices with different SSIDs are unable to
communicate with each other. However, some access points allow connections from
wireless stations which have their SSID set to “any” or whose SSID is blank (null).
– A group of wireless stations and multiple access points, all using the same ID (ESSID),
form an Extended Service Set (ESS).
– Different access points within an ESS can use different channels. To reduce interference, it
is recommended that adjacent access points should use different channels.
– As wireless stations physically move through the area covered by an ESS, they will
automatically change to the access point which has the least interference or best
performance. This capability is called roaming.
• Broadcast Wireless Network Name (SSID). The default is Yes. If you choose No, then only
stations that know the SSID can connect. Disabling the SSID broadcast might interfere with
the wireless network “discovery” feature of some products.
• Wireless Mode. Select one of the following wireless operating modes:
– Auto: Both 802.11b and 802.11g wireless stations can be used.
– 802.11b Only: 802.11b wireless stations can be used.
• Channel/Frequency. This field sets the operating frequency to use. You should not need to
change the channel unless you notice interference problems, or if you are setting up the
WG302v2 near another access point. The wireless channel range is 1 to 11 for USA and
Canada and 1 to 13 for Europe and Australia. The default is channel 11.
– Access points use a fixed channel. You can select the channel to provide the least
interference and best performance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channels are available.
