D-Link
 
Click “Create Site”

Click “OK”

Step 8 – Create a new “Network”. To do this click on the (+) next to the new site
D-Link
 
Then click the (+) symbol to “Create network”

Step 15 – Upload the configuration. To do this, you will need to login to admin user and select the SSID
D-Link
 
Click “Uploading configuration”
