I do NOT broadcast my SSID and would like to know if I can manually enter my wireless information on this device? HOW?

After initiallizing your wifi repeater, you can hide your SSID from broadcasting. I personally found out in my unit when I did this, it would emit a weaker signal. I also recommend changing your router channel to 1 or 6 or 11 for a more stable setup.

yes. That's exactly how mine is set up, as an access point plugged into my main router via an Ethernet cable. One of the choices in the setup menu is "access point". I then use my same radio SSID and password in the D-link as my main wireless router. When I move away from the main router toward the D-link, the wifi locks into the D-link and I get full strength bars. It works great.

there is no code protection when you start the device. but you can set up wifi password as same as wifi router to prevent strangers.

It's been a while George, but if I recall correctly you need to temporarily enable SSID broadcast to set it up. Then you can disable again.

I looked and I didn't see any option on the device for wifi. Sorry about that.

You will have to disable your existing Wifi within the router. I would suggest you download the full support documentation from Ubiquiti website. Basically, you would use your cuttent router as a switch (wifi disabled) and create the new SSID with the Ubiquti unit. Follow all the instructions in the manual. Good luck.

You buy the optional wireless adapter, plug it into the usb port in the front of the receiver and it will recognize it. You'll have to go theough the setting to setup unless your wireless have no password.

Yes you can just go into settings and click on WiFi then your network and input your password and it should work fine

If I have an exisiting Wireless Network, can this device connect to it wirelessly?

Yes, the router sends out the SSID. I have six different devices via WiFi and two via hardwire connected to the router.

Yes, you can use it manually. Wireless implies that you can acces the information collected without actually hooking up wires to the sman4

As long as you put your router ssid in the config for this device it will work fine. It does not need to be broadcasted.

Yes, I had the same issue. I had to downgrade back to 2.0.1 in order to get it to integrate with my home wifi network. Plus, I had a router that ran 2.4 and 5ghz on the same SSID and I had to give them different names to get this device to work. It's a bit buggy

I don't think so honestly when connected with the wire it automatically gets all your wifi info

You first have to find the wifi on your device it should then ask u for the password, type in the password that came with your device and it should be connected

You can't connect to a wireless network without an SSID. However, if you don't wish to use your routers own SSID, you can use this item to provide a wireless access point only by using a cable connection (that way you are not exposing the routers access point)You may also try these kind of range exteders: Linksys Powerline AV Wireless Network Extender (PLWK400)I don't see what the problem of broadcasting the SSID is, if someone is stealing your WiFi, just put a password on it.
