network. If you are the administrator of the network,
ensure that the name of the network is unique. When
you connect to the internet over WLAN, the connection
is based on this information. If the field is dimmed and
cannot be edited, the scanned SSID contains characters
entered in an unknown character set, and not standard
character sets (UTF-8) as the device expects.

name of your WLAN is hidden. When this option is
selected, your device actively searches for the hidden
WLAN when you establish an internet connection.

mode. The infrastructure mode is used with the
internet connections.
Security method—Select None (no security), WEP
(medium security), WPA pre-shared key (high security),
or WPA with EAP (high security).

your data.
