[. . . ] In the United States, there are 11 channels. In the United Kingdom and most of Europe, there are 13 channels. In a small number of other countries, there are other channel requirements. Your Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for the country you reside in. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area, your network should be set to operate on a channel that is different than the other wireless networks. For best performance, use a channel that is at least five channels away from the other wireless network. For instance, if another network is operating on channel 11, then set your network to channel 6 or below. To change the channel, select the channel from the drop-down list. The change is immediate. 44 45 USING THE WEB-BASED ADVANCED USER INTERFACE Using the Broadcast SSID Feature Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only. For security, you can choose not to broadcast your network's SSID. Doing so will keep your network name hidden from computers that are scanning for the presence of wireless networks. To turn off the broadcast of the SSID, remove the check mark from the box next to "Broadcast SSID", and then click "Apply Changes". Each computer now needs to be set to connect to your specific SSID; an SSID of "ANY" will no longer be accepted. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on making this change. Changing the Wireless Encryption Settings Clicking on the "Encryption" link in the "Wireless" tab will take you to the Encryption settings screen. To make setting up your network for the first time easy, the Router ships with encryption turned off. If you wish to turn on encryption, you can do so from this page. Turning on encryption will require you to set each of your wireless-equipped computers with the same encryption settings that you make in the Router. Refer to the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on making this change. There are two types of encryption to choose from: 64-bit and 128-bit encryption. Using encryption will make your network more secure, but will slow down the network performance. Although network performance will be reduced, it is likely the change will not be detectable to users of the network.
