GETTING TO KNOW WIRELESS LAN ADAPTER

LED

LED turns on when WLAN link to WLAN adaptor or AP.

LED is blinking when WLAN Adapter is active.

Wireless LAN network defined by IEEE 802.11b/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.
