Network Name
Network Name is the group name (or SSID) that will be shared by every
member of your wireless network. You will only be able to connect with an
WLAN device that has the same Network Name.
Network Type
This field allows you to select from a list of supported Network Types. The
types displayed have two values: “Access Point” and “Peer-to-Peer”.
Access Point -
The infrastructure mode of operation requires the
presence of an
802.11b Access Point. All
communication is done via the Access Point, which
relays packets to other wireless clients in the BSS as
well as to nodes on a wired network such as Ethernet.
Peer-to-Peer -
This is the 802.11b Ad Hoc mode of operation. All
communication is done from Client to Client without the
use of an Access Point. 802.11 Ad Hoc network uses
the same SSID for establishing the wireless connection.
In this mode you have to set the Channel number you
want to use.
Peer-to-Peer Channel
When you choose Peer-to-Peer as the Network Type, you have to set the
channel number you want to use.
Transmit Rate
The transmission rate at which client of AP transmits the data packets. You
can set this to Auto 1 or 2Mb, 5.5Mb, 11Mb or Fully Automatic.
