Function is for user to disable, enable or let the MFP Server auto select to connect to the wired or wireless network. If "Disable" is selected, the MFP Server can only connect to the network through wired Ethernet. If "Enable" is selected, the MFP Server can only connect to the network through Wireless LAN. If "Auto" is selected, the MFP Server can automatically decide to enable or disable the wireless function. The MFP Server only can work in either Ethernet or wireless LAN mode. It cannot work in both Ethernet and wireless LAN mode at the same time. When the MFP Server starts up, it will auto-detect if the LAN port is connected to an active network by an Ethernet cable. If the MFP Server is connected to an active network by Ethernet cable when starting up, the MFP Server will run in Ethernet mode. If the MFP Server is not connected to an active network by Ethernet cable when starting up, the MFP Server will run in wireless LAN mode. The MFP Server default is in "Auto" mode. Mode is the operation mode of wireless station. You can choose either "Ad Hoc" or "Infrastructure" mode. If you do not have any access point and want to use peer-to-peer connection, you have to choose "Ad Hoc" mode. If you have an access point as the wireless LAN infrastructure, you have to choose "Infrastructure" mode. ESSID is the unique name identified by in a wireless LAN. The ID prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs. Please make sure that the ESSID of all stations and access points in the same WLAN network are the same. Channel Number is the channel number of your wireless LAN. Please make sure that the channel number of all stations and access points in the same WLAN network are the same. 73
