Infrastructure Wireless LAN
The 108Mbps WLAN Cardbus can also provide wireless workstations with access to a
wired LAN. An integrated wired and wireless LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration.
A Basic Service Set (BSS) consists of a group of wireless PC users, and an access point
that is directly connected to the wired LAN. Each wireless PC in this BSS can talk to any
computer in its wireless group via a radio link, or access other computers or network
resources in the wired LAN infrastructure via the access point.
The infrastructure configuration not only extends the accessibility of wireless PCs to the
wired LAN, but also extends the effective wireless transmission range for wireless PCs by
passing their signal through one or more access points.
A wireless infrastructure can be used for access to a central database, or for connection
between mobile workers, as shown in the following figure.

Setting the Communication Domain
Stationary Wireless PCs
The Basic Service Set (BSS) is the communication domain for each access point. For
wireless PCs that do not need to support roaming, set the domain identifier (SSID) for the
wireless card to the SSID of the access point to which you want to connect. Check with
your administrator for the SSID of the access point to which you should connect.
Roaming Wireless PCs
A wireless infrastructure can also support roaming for mobile workers. More than one
access point can be configured to create an Extended Service Set (ESS). By placing the
access points so that a continuous coverage area is created, wireless users within this
ESS can roam freely. All wireless adapters and access points within a specific ESS must
be configured with the same SSID and to the same radio channel.

If your computer cannot find the Wireless PC Card or the network driver does not install
correctly, check the following:
•Make sure the adapter is securely seated in the PCMCIA slot. Check for any hardware
problems, such as physical damage to the card’s connector.
•Try the card in another PCMCIA slot. If this also fails, test your computer with another
wireless card that is known to operate correctly.
•Make sure your computer is using the latest BIOS.
•If there are other network adapters in the computer, they may be causing conflict.
Remove the other network adapters from the computer and test the wireless adapter
separately.
•Check for a defective computer or PCMCIA connection by trying the adapter in another
computer that is known to operate correctly.
If it still does not work, take out the wireless adapter. Then go to “Control Panel” and
delete the adapter from your network configuration menu. Restart your PC and reinstall
the card.
Network Connection Problems
If the Link LED on the PC Card does not light, or if you cannot access any network
resources from the computer, check the following:
•Make sure the correct software driver is installed for your operating system. If
necessary, try reinstalling the driver.
•Make sure the computer and other network devices are receiving power.
•The access point you want to attach to may be defective. Try using another access
point.
•If you cannot access a Windows or NetWare service on the network, check that you
have enabled and configured the service correctly. If you cannot connect to a particular
server, be sure that you have access rights and a valid ID and password.
•If you cannot access the Internet, be sure you have configured your system for TCP/IP.
EZ Connect™ g 108Mbps WLAN Cardbus
22
If your wireless station cannot communicate with a computer in the Ethernet LAN when
configured for Infrastructure mode, check the following:
•Make sure the access point that the station is associated with is powered on.
•If you still cannot connect, change the access point and all the stations within the BSS
to another radio channel.
•Make sure the SSID is the same as that used by the access point for a station with
roaming disabled, or the same as that used by the access points in the extended
service set (ESS).
