the SSID should have the same name as the Access Point. If you choose Ad-Hoc, all
clients should share the same SSID name. You may also select which Transfer Rate you
wish to use: 1, 2, 5.5, 11Mbps or Auto Rate. Under Power Saving Mode, select
Disabled for uninterrupted data communication, or Enabled to allow your Wireless USB
Network Adapter to enter “sleep” mode. Click Apply to save the settings.
