Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID is used.
The SSID is your network name. The default network name of the
Modem Router is “Belkin N1 Wireless” followed by six digits that are
unique to your Modem Router. Your network name will look something
like “Belkin_N1_Wireless_123456”. You can change this to anything
you choose, or you can leave it unchanged. Keep in mind, if you decide
to change your wireless network name, and there are other wireless
networks operating in your area, your network name needs to be different
from other wireless networks that may be operating in your area. To
change the SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the SSID
field (1) and click “Apply Changes” (2). The change is immediate. If you
make a change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers may also
need to be reconfigured to connect to your new network name. Refer to
the documentation of your wireless network adapter for information on
making this change.
Note: Please periodically check for new Modem Router firmware updates
from the “Utilities > Firmware update” page. Newer firmware can fix
problems, add wireless features, and/or improve wireless performance
(see page 63).
