All the check boxes are selected by default.
6. Select or clear the check boxes:
• Enable Wireless Access Point (2.4 GHz). When this check box is selected, the DST
adapter allows WiFi connections in the 2.4 GHz band. Clearing this check box
prevents WiFi devices from connecting to the DST adapter in the 2.4 GHz band. LAN
devices can still connect to the DST adapter over an Ethernet cable.
• Enable SSID Broadcast (2.4 GHz). When this check box is selected, the DST
adapter broadcasts its WiFi network name (SSID) for the 2.4 GHz band. Clearing this
check box hides the DST adapter’s 2.4 GHz network name. In such a situation, this
network name does not display in a WiFi network manager. A user who wants to join
this hidden network must know its network name.
• Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence (2.4 GHz). The DST adapter 2.4 GHz WiFi network
can run in either 40 MHz mode or 20 MHz mode. When this check box is selected, the
DST adapter uses 40 MHz mode unless a nearby WiFi network is using 20 MHz
mode. If that happens, the DST adapter uses 20 MHz mode to coexist with that
network.
• Enable Wireless Access Point (5 GHz). When this check box is selected, the DST
adapter allows WiFi connections in the 5 GHz band. Clearing this check box prevents
WiFi devices from connecting to the DST adapter in the 5 GHz band. LAN devices
can still connect to the DST adapter over an Ethernet cable.
• Enable SSID Broadcast (5 GHz). When this check box is selected, the DST adapter
broadcasts its WiFi network name (SSID) for the 5 GHz band. Clearing this check box
hides the DST adapter’s 5 GHz network name. In such a situation, this network name
does not display in a WiFi network manager. A user who wants to join this hidden
network must know its network name.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your changes are saved.
Set Up a WiFi Access List for the DST Adapter
By default, any WiFi device that is configured with the correct network name (SSID) can
access the DST adapter’s WiFi networks. For increased security, you can restrict access to
the DST adapter’s WiFi networks so that only WiFi devices with the MAC addresses that you
add to an access list can connect.
Each network device owns a MAC address, which is a unique 12-character physical address,
containing the hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F only, separated by colons (for
example, 00:09:AB:CD:EF:01). Typically, the MAC address is on the label of the WiFi device.
If you cannot access the label, you can display the MAC address using the network
configuration utilities of the computer. You might also find the MAC addresses on the
Attached Devices page (see
View Wired and WiFi Network Devices Connected to the DST
Adapter on page 221).
