Introduction
>>> 1.1 MU54G (MS-6865) - Wireless 11g
miniUSB 2.0 Adapter
MSI MU54G (MS-6865) is a miniUSB 2.0 type adapter and
suitable to be embedded in a notebook or PC system. Its autofallback data rate and zero-config features provide a transparent
and easy-configured wireless connectivity for end users as connecting to the LAN backbone.
Compliant with IEEE802.11g, MSI MU54G is a high-efficiency
wireless adapter for wireless networking at home, in office or in
public places. The data rate can be up to 54 Mbps and autonegotiated to 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6Mbps (IEEE 802.11g), or 11,
5.5, 2, 1Mbps (IEEE802.11b).
With MU54G, you can roam between conference room and office without being disconnected the LAN cables; in addition,
sharing files and printers can be easy tasks.
MU54G is available to Microsoft Windows operating systems
(Windows® XP/2000/ME/98SE) and can be integrated into networking with either Ad-hoc mode (computer-to-computer, without an Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (computer-toaccess point, an Access Point is required).

>>> 1.2 How MU54G Works
Ad-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network or
other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary
plug-in connections, in which some of the network devices are
part of the network only for the duration of a communications
session. Users in the network can share files, print to a shared
printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem. In this
kind of network, new devices can be quickly added; however,
users can only communicate with other wireless LAN computers that are in this wireless LAN workgroup, and are within
range.
