ZyAIR G-110 User's Guide 2.2.1 Ad-Hoc (IBSS) Ad-hoc mode does not require an AP or a wired network. Two or more wireless stations communicate directly to each other. An ad-hoc network may sometimes be referred to as an Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). Figure 2-1 Ad-hoc Network Example To set up an ad-hoc network, configure all wireless stations in ad-hoc network type and use the same SSID and channel. 2.2.2 Infrastructure When a number of wireless stations are connected using a single AP, you have a Basic Service Set (BSS). Figure 2-2 BSS Example A series of overlapping BSS and a network medium, such as an Ethernet forms an Extended Service Set (ESS) or infrastructure network. All communication is done through the AP, which relays data packets to other wireless stations or devices connected to the wired network. Wireless stations can then access resource, such as the printer, on the wired network. 2-2 Using the ZyAIR Utility
