Figure 1-2 Ad-hoc Wireless Workgroup
The ad-hoc workgroup configuration enables you to quickly set up
a small wireless workgroup, where the workgroup participants can
exchange files using features like “Files and Printer Sharing” as
supported by Microsoft Networking.
You can use this type of wireless peer-to-peer networks “on the
road”, or in Small Office Home Office (SOHO) environments. As
long as the station are within range of one another, this is the
easiest and least expensive way to set up a wireless network.
