¾ Some computers may need a wireless network adapter installed. This can be a USB

is set to infrastructure or access point mode (NOT ad-hoc or peer-to-peer mode). If
you need help installing your wireless adapter or setting its mode, refer to the
documentation that came with it. After you install the adapter, see the instructions on
page 23 for
