Current channel. This field cannot be changed if the Corinex Wireless |
|
G USB Mini Adapter operates in the infrastructure mode and is con- |
|
nected to an access point. Depending on the country, you may not |
|

Tx Rate
Transmit data rate. This can be set to Auto, allowing the Corinex Wireless G USB Mini Adapter to negotiate the data rate automatically with the access point. If you prefer manual setting, you can select any rate from 1 Mbps up to 54 Mbps.
SSID
Identification of the network. Only two devices which have the same SSID can communicate with each other. You can enable the checkbox “any”, and this will force the Corinex Wireless G USB Mini Adapter to connect to any access point it finds, choosing the best signal strength and link quality.
Network Type
Infrastructure – the clients communicate with each other using an access point. The access point can be connected to a wired net- work, in order to provide connectivity to the Internet, to shared items on a network, and printers.
