Don’t let your next-door neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by turning on
the WPA, WPA2, or WEP security feature on the access point. Refer to product manual for detail information on how to set it up.
There are basically two modes of networking:
• Infrastructure –
All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless bridge.
• Ad-Hoc –
Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication, using wireless network
adapters on each computer, such as two or more wireless network Cardbus adapters.
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wireless bridge. All the wireless devices, or clients, will connect to the
wireless bridge or access point.
An Ad-Hoc network contains only clients, such as laptops with wireless cardbus adapters. All the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc
mode to communicate.
