- Wireless Connectivity: 802.11bgn (300Mbps MIMO)

- functioning as an extender, _almond is appended to the target SSID.
- Note that in newer firmware releases, this can simply be removed to allow
- for roaming between wireless access points.
- Almond-8527_nom...
- SSID visible in Range Extender menu in a sample screen shot. Four use
- 00:21:A4 (Dbii Networks) OUIs while one uses an E4:71:85 (Securifi) OUI.
- WiGLE shows 5 instances of this SSID pattern (Almond-XXXX_nomap).
- The default SSID is in the format of Almond-xxxx_nomap, where xxxx
- is a randomly generated number.
- The _nomap tag provides protection from Google's data collection.
- There may be an option to turn this off.
