| Point or Router. |
| |
| wireless stations in the Wireless LAN network without through an |
| Access Point or Router. |
TX Power | If you want to lower the transmit power of the card for saving the |
| power of the system, you can select the lower percentages from |
| the list. The lower power will cause the lower signal strength and |
| the coverage range. |
Ad Hoc Wireless Mode | When the card is set in Ad Hoc (Peer to Peer Mode), you can |
| designate the wireless connection mode for the Ad Hoc network. |
| 802.11 B only – This card can be compatible with both 802.11g |
| and 802.11b wireless stations. If there are only 802.11b wireless |
| stations in the network, you can set the card to this mode. |
| 802.11 B/G mix – If you have a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g |
| wireless stations in your network, it is recommended to setting the |
| card to this mode. This mode is also the default setting. |
| 802.11 G only – This card can be compatible with both 802.11g |
| and 802.11b wireless stations. If there are only 802.11g wireless |
| stations in the network, you can set the card to this mode. |
| *Ad Hoc mode supports only WEP and |
Infrastructure Mode | It will scan all available channels continuously until it finds one or |
| more Access Points that match its SSID |
Preamble | The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for |
| communication among wireless devices. This option is only active |
| in the Ad Hoc network. |
| There are two modes including Auto and Long Preamble. If |
| “Auto“ mode is selected, the card will auto switch the preamble |
| mode depending on the wireless devices the card is connecting |
| to. |
Parameter | Description |
RTS Threshold | Minimum packet size required for an RTS (Request To Send). For |
| packets smaller than this threshold, an RTS is not sent and the |
| packet is transmitted directly to the wireless network. Select a |
| setting within a range of 0 to 2347 bytes. Minor change is |
| recommended. |
