QuÃ© is the equivalent to the interrogative pronoun âwhatâ and tal is a bit less clear, apparently coming from the latin adjective talis which means âsuchâ, âof such a kindâ, or âthe like.â So talis describes the state or condition of the noun it modifies.
A service set identifier (SSID) is a sequence of characters that uniquely names a wireless local area network (WLAN). This name allows stations to connect to the desired network when multiple independent networks operate in the same physical area.
The SSID itself is a 32-character string (the characters can be anything a computer can type, such as a letter, number, symbol, punctuation mark, and even a blank space). A wireless network can be either hidden or broadcast. If the SSID is broadcast, then anyone can find that network and hop on.
