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 Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID) defines the most basic infrastructure mode network, a BSS of one WAP and one or more wireless nodes.With such a simple network, the Wi-Fi folks didn't see any reason to create some new numbering or naming scheme, so they made the BSSID the same as the MAC address for the WAP.nfortunately, most Wi-Fi devices just use the term SSID, not ESSID. When you configure a wireless device to connect to an ESS, you're technically using the ESSID rather than just the SSID, but the manufacturer often has tried to make it simple for you by using only the term SSID.
