Network/Mode

network interface card and no access point.

communications or BSS network. As long as the devices

 

are in range and are on the same channel and SSID, they

 

connect and communicate. Use this mode if a wireless

 

infrastructure does not exist or where services are not

 

required.

the BOOTP Config file to obtain the IP address from the

 

server.
