ESS-ID
The ESS-ID is also known as Extended Service Set Identify. It is a special case of SSID used
to identify a wireless network that includes access points. SSID is the short for the Service Set
Identifier who identifies a wireless network. All wireless devices on one network must use the
same SSID. You can type the ESS-ID in the text filed manually or click Search to scan the
available networks around you automatically. The process to configure the ESS-ID is the
same as described in the Top Page
and you can see more specification there.
Network to Access
T-311 can operate with or without access point and have two corresponding modes. One is the
infrastructure mode and the other is ad hoc mode, also called peer-to-peer mode.
 Access Point (infrastructure) mode
In access point wireless networks, T-311 connects to wireless access points. These
access points function as bridges between wireless stations and the existing network
distribution system (network backbone).
 Computer-to-computer (ad hoc) mode
