FAQ for Wi-Fi B4: What is 802.11 Ad Hoc Network? What should I do to form an 802.11 Ad Hoc Network? 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode is used to create a peer-to-peer connection without an Access Point. The SSID must be the same among stations to enable the wireless communication within the local area network. You need to choose a proper SSID and channel for the first 802.11 Ad Hoc station. For other stations want to join the same SSID group, you could only choose the same SSID as the first station for connection. The Channel setting for the 802.11 Ad Hoc Network stations to join the existing 802.11 Ad Hoc Network will automatically be set as the channel number of the network. More Information B5. What is the difference between "Infrastructure" and "802.11 Ad Hoc" Network Mode? How do I choose? B6. Could I use the 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode to access the LAN resources? How can I access the LAN resource without an Access Point? B7. What should I do if my host computer cannot wirelessly connect with my Pocket PC? B5: What is the difference between "Infrastructure" and "802.11 Ad Hoc" Network Mode? How do I choose? Infrastructure Mode is used to connect your Pocket PC with the Access Point. Usually, to form a Wireless Network, you can connect your Access Point to the ADSL, Cable Model or LAN Ethernet and then configure the Access Point base on the User Guide for the Ac- cess Point to set the proper SSID, Channel and WEP security service. After that, configure the IEEE 802.11b WLAN adaptor. Set the same SSID, Channel and WEP as the Access Point's. 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode allows your Pocket PC to form its own local network where devices communicate peer-to-peer, using a shared SSID, without Access Points. Under 802.11 Ad Hoc mode, the SSID must be the same among stations so that the devices can communicate properly within the Wireless Network. If you want to form your network without any Access Points, you should choose 802.11 Ad Hoc mode. B6: Could I use the 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode to access the LAN resources? How can I access the LAN resource without an Access Point? Yes , you can access the LAN resources without an Access Point . Follow the steps shown below: 1. Make sure your host computer already successfully connect to the LAN or Internet through the LAN Adaptor or the Modem. 2. Install the Wireless LAN Adaptor into your Host computer successfully and set 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode and the proper SSID to form the 802.11 Ad Hoc Network. Install and enable the ICS (Internet Sharing Software, such as "SyGate"...) function in your host computer. (Note that the Windows 2K or later version, OS, supports the ICS function in Local Area Connection Properties? Sharing) User's Manual B-3

802.11 Ad Hoc Network?
802.11 Ad Hoc Mode is used to create a peer-to-peer connection without
an Access Point. The SSID must be the same among stations to enable
the wireless communication within the local area network.
You need to choose a proper SSID and channel for the first 802.11 Ad
Hoc station. For other stations want to join the same SSID group, you
could only choose the same SSID as the first station for connection. The
Channel setting for the 802.11 Ad Hoc Network stations to join the

B5: What is the difference between “Infrastructure” and “802.11 Ad
Hoc” Network Mode? How do I choose?
Infrastructure Mode is used to connect your Pocket PC with the Access
Point. Usually, to form a Wireless Network, you can connect your Access
Point to the ADSL, Cable Model or LAN Ethernet and then configure the
Access Point base on the User Guide for the Ac- cess Point to set the
proper SSID, Channel and WEP security service. After that, configure the
IEEE 802.11b WLAN adaptor. Set the same SSID, Channel and WEP as
the Access Point’s. 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode allows your Pocket PC to form
its own local network where devices communicate peer-to-peer, using a
shared SSID, without Access Points. Under 802.11 Ad Hoc mode, the
SSID must be the same among stations so that the devices can
communicate properly within the Wireless Network. If you want to form
your network without any Access Points, you should choose 802.11 Ad
Hoc mode.
B6: Could I use the 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode to access the LAN
resources? How can I access the LAN resource without an Access
Point?
Yes , you can access the LAN resources without an Access Point . Follow
the steps shown below:
1.
Make sure your host computer already successfully connect to the
LAN or Internet through the LAN Adaptor or the Modem.
2.
Install the Wireless LAN Adaptor into your Host computer successfully
and set 802.11 Ad Hoc Mode and the proper SSID to form the 802.11
Ad Hoc Network. Install and enable the ICS (Internet Sharing
Software, such as “SyGate”...) function in your host computer. (Note
that the Windows 2K or later version, OS, supports the ICS function in
Local Area Connection Properties? Sharing)
