Intellinet Network Solutions 530361 user manual Profile Configuration

Profile Configuration

Profile Name: Define easily recognizable profile names to identify the different networks.

SSID: The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs. If you specify an SSID for the adapter, then only the device with the same SSID can interconnect to the adapter. To add a nearby network to the profile list, pull down the menu to view all the networks that can be selected.

Power Save Mode: The two power-saving functions are available only when Network Type (see below) is set to “Infrastructure.”

•CAM (Constantly Awake Mode): With this selected, the adapter will remain in an active mode.

•PSM (Power Save Mode): Enable the adapter in the power-save mode when it is idle.

Network Type: Select from the drop-down menu.

•Infrastructure: This operation mode requires the presence of an 802.11 access point. All communication is done via the AP or router.

•Ad-Hoc:Select this mode to connect to another wireless station in the wireless LAN network without using an access point or router.

Tx Power: To lower the transmit power of the adapter to reduce the power used by the system, select a lower percentage from the drop-down menu. NOTE: A lower power level will result in lower signal strength and reduced coverage range.
