The '''General Setup''' tab contains only two options. '''SSID''' is the name of your Wi-Fi interface. When other Wi-Fi capable computers or devices scan the area for Wi-Fi networks they will see your network with this name. '''Hide SSID''' is used to make your Access Point invisible to other devices. To use a hidden WiFi Access Point, first un-hide it, connect your device to it, then hide it again.

====Wireless Security====

 

The '''Wireless Security''' tab is used to determine what kind of encryption your WLAN will use. You can choose between different types of '''WEP''' (Wireless Encryption Protocol) or '''WPA''' (Wi-Fi Protected Access.) '''WPA''' provides better security because it uses improved data encryption through the temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) but not all devices support '''WPA''' and will work only with '''WEP''' type of encryption.
