Traditionally, a wireless network operates in one of two ways. • An "infrastructure" type of network has one or more access points and one or more wireless clients. The wireless clients connect to the access points. • An "ad-hoc" type of network is one in which there is no access point. Wireless clients connect to one another in order to exchange information. 90 SBG3300-N Series User's Guide
