10. Ad Hoc Connection
n The wireless network adaptor now is set up completely and working properly. Your device
should be able to connect to the wireless world.
In an ad hoc mode WLAN (wireless local-area network), wireless devices can communicate
directly with each other. A wireless network adapter works within an independent basic
service set (IBSS), as illustrated here. All stations communicate directly with other stations
without using an access point (AP). If you have a Windows 7 computer (or a Windows Vista
computer, which is very similar), you will use a process similar to the following to create and
activate your ad hoc WLAN network. Please be noticed that only “Computer to Computer”
connection at this mode, no internet connection.

11. Advanced Settings
After the connection is set up, it initially becomes active and remains so until you connect to
another network. If you did not choose to save the connection, it will be removed from your
wireless configuration at that time and you will need to repeat this process to reactivate an
ad hoc network connection.
10-3. Disconnect Ad Hoc connection
Repeat 7.2 process and select the Ad Hoc connection, the “Disconnect“ will appear instead
of “Connect“. Select “Disconnect” and the Ad Hoc connection will be disconnected.
There are several advanced WiFi settings that can be changed. They are advanced WiFi
settings which are normally set to default value. These advanced network adapter
settings can vary between different models and drivers. These settings can significantly
affect performance and reliability—in a good or bad way. Though some settings and
adjustments are supposed to help, they almost always depend upon your particular
network and usage. A re-install of the driver should restore the factory defaults if there
is a need.
Again, you can go to below location and right click on the wireless Network adaptor.
You can see the advance features on the second tab.

802.11b Preamble
Most wireless 802.11b devices are preset for long preambles. This allows increased
compatibility between wireless devices, sometimes at the expense of speed. All wireless
802.11b devices must support long preambles, while short preambles are optional. The
802.11b protocol, for example, allows switching from a short preamble to long and back
again to remedy difficulties in data transmission between devices.
Ad Hoc 11n
This will enable or disable the computer to computer connection feature.
Dynamic MIMO Power Saving
Dynamic MIMO power save is used by 802.11n radios for power saving across multiple
tx-rx chains. Running multiple radio chains increases power consumption, and also
increase the achievable data rate by a larger amount. However, it is not useful to have
all chains available all the time. So, this mechanism is useful in shutting unused chains

This is the channel plan for devices marketed with the FCC ID on the label.
To comply with 15.202 requirements for client devices, the AEX-AR95 Series is programmed at the factory
for a specific geographic location or region code. The wireless LAN operating parameters such as available
channels and transmit power levels are set based on the region code. Periodic system software updates
cannot change the region code and thus the wireless LAN parameters. The AEX-AR95 Series is protected
with a cryptographic signature, which prevents the loading of unauthorized software.

PHY (physical layer), and frame aggregation to the MAC layer.
MIMO is a technology that uses multiple antennas to coherently resolve more information
than possible using a single antenna. One way it provides this is through Spatial Division
Multiplexing (SDM), which spatially multiplexes multiple independent data streams,
transferred simultaneously within one spectral channel of bandwidth. MIMO SDM can
significantly increase data throughput as the number of resolved spatial data streams is
increased. Each spatial stream requires a discrete antenna at both the transmitter and the
receiver. In addition, MIMO technology requires a separate radio-frequency chain and
analog-to-digital converter for each MIMO antenna, making it more expensive to implement
than non-MIMO systems.
Channels operating with a width of 40 MHz are another feature incorporated into 802.11n;
this doubles the channel width from 20 MHz in previous 802.11 PHYs to transmit data, and
provides twice the PHY data rate available over a single 20 MHz channel. It can be enabled in
the 5 GHz mode, or within the 2.4 GHz mode if there is knowledge that it will not interfere
with any other 802.11 or non-802.11 (such as Bluetooth) system using the same frequencies.
[3] The MIMO architecture, together with wider-bandwidth channels, offers increased
physical transfer rate over 802.11a (5 GHz) and 802.11g (2.4 GHz).
When 802.11g was released to share the band with existing 802.11b devices, it provided
ways of ensuring coexistence between legacy and successor devices. 802.11n extends the
coexistence management to protect its transmissions from legacy devices, which include
802.11g, 802.11b and 802.11a. There are MAC and PHY level protection mechanisms as listed
below:
n PHY level protection: Mixed Mode Format protection (also known as L-SIG TXOP Protection):
In mixed mode, each 802.11n transmission is always embedded in an 802.11a or 802.11g
transmission. For 20 MHz transmissions, this embedding takes care of the protection with

802.11a and 802.11g. However, 802.11b devices still need CTS protection.
n PHY level protection: Transmissions using a 40 MHz channel in the presence of 802.11a or
802.11g clients require using CTS protection on both 20 MHz halves of the 40 MHz channel,
to prevent interference with legacy devices.
MAC level protection: An RTS/CTS frame exchange or CTS frame transmission at legacy rates
can be used to protect subsequent 11n transmission.
13.3 Hardware installation
Module shall be well seated with screw, holder or glue within the system. The location shall
be well designed. It should be distant from high voltage, heat, high noise area, so to achieve
better wireless performance. Antennas location shell be away from the body at least 20 cm
to minimize the power into the body.
Antenna location should be able to provide the best line-of-sign (LOS) of the system
(normally near the top of the system for the client, or at the other way if it is a master) to
achieve better performance for the system. All the antenna ports should be connected with
antenna or terminator, so to avoid the damage and have better performance.
Below antennas are recommended. The antenna gain should be less than the one listed
below in all directions for certification compliance purpose.
This radio transmitter (IC: 20662-AEXAR95X) has been approved by Industry
Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible
gain indicated.
Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated
for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
