Wireless LAN network defined by IEEE 802.11a/b/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.
Ad Hoc Wireless Network Infrastructure Wireless Network
The most obvious difference between Infrastructure wireless network and Ad
Hoc wireless network is that the PCs in Infrastructure wireless network can
access the resource in the Internet through Access Point.
Depending on your requirement, you can easily set up your PC’s network to be
a “Ad Hoc” or “Infrastructure” wireless network. Generally speaking, if in your
network, there is an Access Point in it, we recommend you to set your
network as an “Infrastructure”, so it can connect to the Internet.

To use the WLAN 11n USB Client Adapter 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.
Your IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask if you’re not
using a DHCP client.
Any computer on a network is identified by a unique network address. There
are two methods to assign a network address to a computer on a TCP/IP
network :
Static IP addressing. Dynamic IP addressing (DHCP Client).
In network with static IP addressing, the network administrator manually
assigns an IP address to each computer. Once a static IP address is assigned,
a computer uses the same IP address every time it reboots and logs on to the
network. You may manually change the IP address in the
Network Properties
dialog box.
Network using static IP address is easy to set up and do not
require additional network management software
.
In network with dynamic IP addressing, a DHCP server in the network
dynamically assigns IP addresses to all clients every time they log on to the
network. Network using dynamic IP address requires setting up and running a
DHCP Server.
