Wireless LAN network defined by IEEE 802.11b/g standard committee could be configured as : Ad Hoc wireless LAN. Infrastructure wireless LAN. Ad Hoc network is a group of PCs installed with wireless LAN cards, this group of PCs is called a BSS (Basic Service Set). PCs in this group can use their wireless LAN cards to communicate with each other, but can not connect to the Internet.
To use the 11n wireless LAN usb adaptor with a computing device, the WLAN Adapter must be equipped with a proper Interface. All drivers and supporting software for the WLAN Adapter must be installed and configured first. Ask your system administrator for the following information, which you may need to provide during driver installation : Your Wireless Client Name. Your Wireless SSID. Your computer’s unique client name and workgroup name. For your network account, your user name and password.
▓ Windows XP/2K The installation & driver CD will automatically activate the autorun installation program after you insert the disk into your CD drive. Step 1 : Insert the installation CD into your CD-ROM. Installation program will prompt language setup. Choose the Setup Language you would like to use and click Next button.

5.2.1 GENERAL SETTING Once device is set, double click on that icon and the configuration window will pop up as shown. It shows the current connected network. The signal strength and link quality are displayed also. The bar graph displays the quality and strength of the link between the node and its Access Point. Link Quality is a measurement of receiving and transmitting performances over the radio. Network Address displays current MAC Address, IP Address, Subnet. and Gateway.
5.2.3 AVAILABLE NETWOEK SETTING Click Available Network tab and it will show all available networks that radio can reaches. Select proper SSID & BSSID you want to connect. Click Refresh button to force and rescan available networks currently. Select one of SSIDs, and click Add to Profile to create profile that can be configured more wireless parameters. In this page, you can edit your profile name, configure wireless security like WEP, WPA, WPA2, 802.1x …etc.
5.2.5 Statistics Statistics page tab will show real-time TX/RX relative counters to check or evaluate the wireless performance. Click Reset button to set counter to zero. 5.2.6 Wi-Fi Protected Setup An easy and secure setup solution for Wi-Fi network. you can choose PIN Code or Push Button method to connect to an AP.

IEEE 802.11 Standard The IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN standards subcommittee, which is formulating a standard for the industry. Access Point An internetworking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks together. Ad Hoc An Ad Hoc wireless LAN is a group of computers, each with a WLAN adapter, connected as an independent wireless LAN. Ad Hoc wireless LAN is applicable at a departmental scale for a branch or SOHO operation. BSSID A specific Ad Hoc LAN is called a Basic Service Set (BSS).
systems, such as a LAN and a mainframe. In Internet terminology, a gateway is another name for a router. Generally a gateway is used as a funnel for all traffic to the Internet. IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Infrastructure An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration. Infrastructure is applicable to enterprise scale for wireless access to central database, or wireless application for mobile workers.
uses the same IP address every time it reboots and logs on to the network, unless it is manually changed. Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) The Temporal Key Integrity Protocol, pronounced tee-kip, is part of the IEEE 802.11i encryption standard for wireless LANs. TKIP is the next generation of WEP, the Wired Equivalency Protocol, which is used to secure 802.11 wireless LANs. TKIP provides per-packet key mixing, a message integrity check and a re-keying mechanism, thus fixing the flaws of WEP.
cracked in a couple of hours with off-the-shelf tools. Wireless LAN (WLAN) A wireless LAN does not use cable to transmit signals, but rather uses radio or infrared to transmit packets through the air. Radio Frequency (RF) and infrared are the commonly used types of wireless transmission. Most wireless LANs use spread spectrum technology.
mechanism, the transmitting station sends out an RTS packet to the receiving station, and waits for the receiving station to send back a CTS (Clear to Send) packet before sending the actual packet data. This setting is useful for networks with many clients. With many clients, and a high network load, there will be many more collisions. By lowering the RTS threshold, there may be fewer collisions, and performance should improve.
802.1x Authentication 802.1x is a framework for authenticated MAC-level access control, defines Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) over LANs (WAPOL). The standard encapsulates and leverages much of EAP, which was defined for dial-up authentication with Point-to-Point Protocol in RFC 2284. Beyond encapsulating EAP packets, the 802.1x standard also defines EAPOL messages that convey the shared key information critical for wireless security.
