Reference Manual for the Integrated ADSL Modem and Wireless Router with Voice, Model

3-4 Wireless Configuration

v1.0, September 2006

The following parameters are in the Wireless Settings menu:

• Wireless Network.

— Name (SSID). The Service Set ID, also known as the wireless network name. Enter a

value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The same Name (SSID) must be assigned to all

wireless devices in your network. The default SSID is NETGEAR, but NETGEAR

strongly recommends that you change your network Name to a different value.

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

of operation for which the wireless interface is intended.

— 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 modem router. The wireless icon on the front of the modem 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.

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

wireless.

Note: In the USA, the Region is preset according to regulatory requirements and

cannot be changed. In other areas, you can and must set the Region. It may

not be legal to operate the wireless access point in a region other than one

of those identified in this field.
