Configuring the USB Wireless Network Adapter
1. This screen shows you the status of your current connection.
2. Select the Configuration tab. The profile setting allows you to save
configurations in different profiles for different working environments. The default
profile will contain the initial configuration setting when you install the Card. Under
the Wireless Mode drop-box, you may choose either Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc. The
Infrastructure mode allows a wireless adapter to communicate with a wired network
employing an Access Point, while the Ad-Hoc mode allows wireless-to-wireless,
peer-to-peer communication. If you choose Infrastructure, 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, you can select
Enabled to allow your adapter to go to sleep mode while the adapter doesnt
proceed the data transmission. Or select Disabled to make the adapter never go to
sleep mode. Click Apply to save the settings.
