Yes the ESSID.  Which I generally recommend to people NOT to disable
it.  I have run into too many devices that work poorly when the beacon
signal is disabled. (portable wifi devices).

Just to be clear.  Disabling the beacon does NOTHING for security. 
Many tools such as airsnort will discover an AP with ESSID beacon
disabled.
