A featureof wireless networking is the ability to scan for networks and connect to themeasily. For instance, you can set up a wireless-equipped computer to connect toand an SSID called “ANY”. This forces the wireless network adapter in the computerto look for any network in the area and connect to it. For ease-of-use this is veryconvenient, but in some cases you may want users to have to specify the name ofthe network. You can program the Router to reject a wireless-equipped computerlooking for an SSID of “ANY”. Remove the check mark in the box next to “Accept‘ANY’ SSID”, then click “Apply Changes”. The change is immediate. Each computernow needs to be set to connect to your specific SSID; an SSID of “ANY” will nolonger be accepted.
