modes.
•Ad-Hoc Station- This is the 802.11b/g Ad-Hoc mode of operation. In “Ad-Hoc” mode, only one
wireless “ cell ” is supported for each different NETWORK NAME. All communication is done from
client to client without the use of an Access Point. “Peer-to-Peer” networking uses the same NETWORK
NAME for the wireless adapters in establishing the network connection. When “Ad-Hoc ” mode is
selected, the utility will provide a selection for setting the channel.
•Infrastructure Station- This mode of operation requires the presence of an 802.11b/g Infrastructure.
All communication is done through the Infrastructure, which relays packets to other wireless clients as
well as to nodes on a wired Ethernet network.
