Network Type
This field allows you to select from a list of supported Network "Modes". The modes displayed will
have two values: "Ad Hoc" and "Infrastructure".
Ad Hoc - This is the 802.11 peer-to-peer mode of operation. In 802.11Ad Hoc only one wireless
"cell" is supported for each different SSID. All communication is done from Client to Client without
the use of an Access Point. 802.11 Ad Hoc networking uses the same SSID for establishing the
wireless connection.
Infrastructure - This mode of operation requires the presence of an 802.11 Access Point. All
communication is done via the Access
the BSS as well as to nodes on a wired network such as Ethernet.
Transmit Rate – The transmission rate at which client of AP transmits the data packets. You may
set this to fixed 1Mbps, fixed 2 Mbps, fixed 5.5 Mbps or 11 Mbps.
Encryption (WEP) - You may desire an additional measure of security on your wireless network,
which can be achieved by using WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption.
When an encrypted frame is received it will only be accepted if it decrypts correctly. This will only
happen if the receiver has the WEP Key used by the transmitter.
This panel allows to entry for 64/128-bit encryption according to WEP function select. To be
written to the driver and registry, such as Hexadecimal format, each key must consist of hex digits,
which means that only digit 0-9 and letters A-F are valid entries. If entered incorrectly program will
not write keys to a driver.
