Device Configuration
Configuration of the Alphanetworks WMP-A13V Wireless Network mini PCI
Card can be done through the Network Control Panel (NCP) in adapter
properties. You can set the Wireless Network mini PCI Card to work in one of
two modes, either infrastructure mode (which leverages an AP) or ad hoc
mode (which consists of a group of stations participating in the WLAN).
In infrastructure mode, the Wireless Network mini PCI Card participates in a
basic service set (BSS) as a station, and communicates with the other
stations through an AP, as illustrated in Figure 2-1.
