Re: question: Linksys 54G WAP - SSID name change issue

I would assume the problem is with the particular wireless device, and
not with your AP.  Have you contacted their support?

I have changed SSID's many times on many brands of equipment and have
yet to run into or hear about anything similar to what you are
describing.

Hi all,

I don't know if any of you are familiar with this issue or not, but at
home, when I change the SSID, I have at least one wireless device which
has an inconsistent connection. It connects and later drops, but
eventually re-connects again and repeats itself. If I change it back to
the default, no problem.  I have updated the firmware, and searched
through Linksys website for information about this problem, but it
persists.  Linksys tech support changing my antenna position, but that
didn't help.

Any suggestions or solutions?

Thanks,

Joe
