In a home network, the SSID broadcast feature serves no useful purpose. You should disable this feature to improve the security of your wireless network. You will need to manually configure your wireless clients with the same SSID as your access point or wireless router.
Step 1: Open a web browser and type the IP address of the VDI-624 in the address bar (default is 192.168.0.1). Press Enter.
Step 2: The default username and password is listed below for your version of firmware:
Click OK.
Step 3: Click the Advanced tab at the top and then click Performance on the left side.
Step 4: Next to SSID Broadcast select Disabled.
Step 5: Click Apply and then click Continue to save the new settings.

It is recommended to configure the preamble on your VDI-624 before your wireless adapters. You may need to set the preamble on all wireless clients.
Step 1: Open a web browser and type the IP address of the VDI-624 in the address bar (default is 192.168.0.1). Press Enter.
Step 2: The default username and password is listed below for your version of firmware:
# Firmware 2.39DDM – The default username is admin and the default password is blank (nothing).
# Firmware 2.43 Build 12 – The default username is admin and the default password is password.
Click OK.
Step 3: Click the Advanced tab at the top and then click Performance on the left.
Step 4: Select Short Preamble or Long Preamble next to Preamble Type. If you experience lock-ups when transferring large files, then select Short Preamble. You must also match your other wireless devices with the same preamble setting.
Note: The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for communication between the wireless access point and the roaming wireless network adapters. CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors.
Step 5: Click Apply and then click Continue to save the new settings.
