Chapter 1: Overview
Chapter 1
Overview
This product is an IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Card with USB interface solution. This solution provides
compatibility with 802.11b and 802.11g standard devices. Now users have the flexibility to connect to
802.11b or 802.11g networks effortlessly.
It allows your computer to connect to a wireless network and to share resources, such as files or printers
without being bound to the network wires. Operating in 2.4GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
(DSSS) radio transmission, the Wireless LAN Card transfers data at speeds up to 54Mbps. Both Ad hoc
and Infrastructure mode are supported. For network security concern, 64/128-bits Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP) encryption is used. In addition, its standard compliance ensures that it can communicate
with any 802.11b/g networks. It also supports Microsoft WHQL software for Windows XP.
Wireless LAN Basics
This section contains some Wireless LAN basics to help you better understand how the products work
together to create a wireless network.
Local Area Network (LAN)
LAN is a local network that exists in a relatively limited area. Within the network, two or more computers
are connected together sharing files and peripheral devices such as printers.
The Wireless LAN Card allows you to interact with other computers without having to run cables
normally associated with networks. This lets you move your computer around while staying connected to
your network.
There are two ways to use the Wireless LAN Card. One way is to connect directly to one or more
Wireless LAN Card equipped computers, forming an Ad hoc wireless network. The second way is to
connect to an Access Point that gives you access to an existing wired LAN, forming an Infrastructure
wireless network.
Ad Hoc Mode
An Ad Hoc network offers peer-to-peer connections between wireless stations that are in range of each
other. The stations communicate directly with each other without using an Access Point or any
connection to a wired network. This mode is useful for quickly and easily setting up a wireless network
anywhere that a wireless infrastructure does not exist or is not required for services. In an Ad Hoc
network, all wireless stations must have the same SSID, channel and WEP keys (if enabled) to
communicate with each other.
Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter
Infrastructure Mode
An Infrastructure wireless network consists of at least one Access Point connected to the wired network
infrastructure and a set of wireless end stations. The AP acts as a gateway, linking the wireless network
to a wired LAN. As a result, wireless stations have access to all of the features of your wired LAN
including e-mail, Internet, network printers and files server access.
Roaming
For large environments, multiple Access Points can be implemented to extend the wireless service
coverage area for seamless wireless access. It allows wireless clients to roam from one AP to another
while maintaining the wireless connectivity at all times. A wireless client wandering across multiple APs
will automatically change the operating radio frequency as required.
In a roaming network, all APs and wireless clients must have the same Service Set Identity (SSID) and
security setting (if enabled). Alternatively the mobile station may use an SSID of “any” to associate with
any available AP, regardless of the AP’s SSID. Roaming among different Access Points is controlled
automatically to maintain the wireless connectivity at all times.

Edit the fields in the Advanced tab of Profile Management to configure the profile. Make sure to also
edit the General and Security tabs.
Transmit Power Selects the transmit power level for 80211b/g or 802.11a in mW. Actual
Level transmit power may be limited by regulatory domain or hardware
limitations.
Power Save Specify:
Mode Maximum mode causes the access point to buffer incoming messages
for the wireless adapter. The adapter up periodically polls the access
point to see if any messages are waiting.
Normal uses maximum when retrieving a large number of packets, then
switches back to power save mode after retrieving the packets.
Off turns power saving off, thus powering up the wireless adapter
continuously for a short message response time.
Network Type Specifies the network as either infrastructure (access point mode) or ad
hoc.
802.11b Preamble Specifies the preamble setting in 802.11b. The default setting is Short
& Long (access point mode), which allows both short and long headers
in the 802.11b frames. The adapter can only use short radio headers if
the access point supports and uses them. Set to Long Only to override
allowing short frames.
Wireless Mode Specifies 5GHz 54 Mbps, 2.4 GHz 54 Mbps, 2.4 GHz 11 Mbps, or
Super A/G operation in an access point network.
The wireless adapter must match the wireless mode of the access point
it associates to.
Wireless Mode Specifies 5GHz 54 Mbps, 5GHz 108 Mbps, or 2.4 GHz 54/11 Mbps to
when Starting an start an ad hoc network if no matching network name is found after
Ad Hoc Network scanning all available modes.
This mode also allows selection of the channel the wireless adapter
uses. The channels available depend on the regulatory domain. If the
adapter finds no other ad hoc adapters, this selection specifies which
channel with the adapter starts the ad hoc network with.
22
Chapter 3: Utility Configuration
The wireless adapter must match the wireless mode and channel of the
clients it associates to.
802.11a Select what mode the wireless adapter uses to authenticate to an
Authentication access point:
Mode Auto causes the adapter to attempt authentication using Shared, but
switches it to open authentication if Shared fails.
Open enables an adapter to attempt authentication regardless of its
WEP settings. It will only associate with the access point if the WEP
keys on both the adapter and the access point match.
Shared only allows the adapter to associate with access points that
have the same WEP key.
Note
The Utility only allows the creation of 16 configuration profiles. After the
creation of 16 profiles, clicking the New button displays an error
message. Remove an old profile or modify an existing profile for a new
use.
Infrastructure (Access Point) Mode
In infrastructure (access point (AP)) mode, the wireless network adapter participates in a basic
service set (BSS) as a station, and communicates with the other stations through an AP, as
illustrated here.

window appears.
2. Browse to the directory where the profile is
located.
3. Highlight the profile name.
4. Click Open. The imported profile appears
in the profiles list.
Exporting a Profile
1. From the Profile Management tab, highlight the
profile to export. Click the Export button. The
Export Profile window appears.
25
Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter
2. Browse to the directory to export the profile
to.
3. Click Save. The profile is exported to the
specified location.
Order Profiles
1. Highlight a profile in the Auto Selected
Profiles box.
2. Click Move Up or Move Down as appropriate.
The first profile in the Auto Selected Profiles
box has highest priority, and the last profile has
lowest priority.
3. Click OK.
4. Check the Auto Select Profiles box.
5. Save the modified configuration file.
When auto profile selection is enabled by checking
Auto Select Profiles on the Profile Management
tab, the client adapter scans for an available
network. The profile with the highest priority and
the same SSID as one of the found networks is the
one that is used to connect to the network. If the
connection fails, the client adapter tries the next
highest priority profile that matches the SSID, and
so on.
With auto profile selection enabled, the wireless adapter scans for available networks. The
highest priority profile with the same SSID as a found network is used to connect to the
network. On a failed connection, the client adapter tries with the next highest priority profile.
