2 Wireless LAN basics
Wireless LAN network defined by IEEE 802.11b standard committee could be
Configure as: Ad Hoc wireless LAN or Infrastructure wireless LAN.
Ad Hoc network is a group of notebooks with wireless LAN PC cards, called a BSS
(Basic Service Set). These notebooks use their wireless LAN PC cards to
communicate with each other directly.
The most obvious differentiation between Infrastructure wireless network and
Ad Hoc wireless network is that the notebooks in Infrastructure wireless network
can make use of the resource in the Internet through Access Point.
To set up your notebook’s network as the type of “Ad Hoc” or “Infrastructure”
wireless network depends completely on your requirement. Generally, if your network
environment has an Access Point, it’s recommend that you set it as “Infrastructure”
mode to connect to the Internet.
3 Configuration Utility.
If you use Windows XP, there are two different utility to configure you wireless setting,
although we provide another more user friendly interface, but both of them are similar in
functional using. You can choose any one of them, that you more like or convenience to use.
3.1 Windows XP Wireless Network Connection Setting.
1. After finished install driver and utility in your system. Next step we can start to setup your
wireless card. First of all we can see the connection notice in the right corner (Fig. 3.1-1)
Fig. 3.1-1
2. Click the notice frame and it will be popup a setup dialog as below (Fig. 3.1-2).
If there have efficient access point, which efficient range contains your pc card range, then
the SSID will appear in the “Available networks” list. Select one and click Connect button.
Fig. 3.1-2
3. It’s normal sight when you pick a good connection. Windows XP will appear warning
notice as following (Fig. 3.1-3) for a second.
Fig. 3.1-3
4. After several seconds, you will see connection states information on notice frame (Fig.3.1-4).
It will show SSID and signal strength.
Fig.3.1-4
3.1 Realtek Connection Setting.
We provide another wireless setting utility for Windows (2000/me/98SE) use. Of course,
Windows XP version already prepared. Every function is the same like Windows 2k version.
1. Plug-in wireless card and you will see Realtek utility appear on your system tray.
(Fig3.2-1)
(Fig3.2-1)
2. Double-click the crab icon, following dialog box will appear. (Fig3.2-2)
Wait a second till the blank list available wireless networks, if the net require WEP key, just
input correct WEP key into Network key field and confirm again, click Connect button to
build valid connection.
(Fig3.2-2)
3.Trending towards advanced setting, we can click “Advanced” button at beginning, a
new window will pop-up as following. (Fig3.2-3) You can assign Access Point which you want
connect to. We also can change presently connection just click SSID from “Available
Profile” list then click remove button to end off connection. At the bottom of window, it will
show presently signal strength and link quality clearly. It can help us to select which Access
Point owned the best link quality when we set our connection. If we always use some fixed
profile, you can set it be a default to avoid the trouble, which you need set profile when you
login network.

(Fig3.2-3)
4.There are several wireless network coexist, we must consider with data Encryption. It
depend on your Access Point security setting, one of them not match , them the connection
will be failed.

5 Glossary
IEEE 802.11 Standard
The IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN standards subcommittee, which is formulating a
standard for the industry.
Access Point
12
An internetworking device that seamlessly connects wired and wireless networks together.
Ad Hoc
An Ad Hoc wireless LAN is a group of computers, each with a WLAN adapter,
connected as an independent wireless LAN. Ad Hoc wireless LAN is applicable at a
departmental scale for a branch or SOHO operation.
BSSID
A specific Ad Hoc LAN is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). Computers in a BSS must
be configured with the same BSSID.
DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - a method in which IP addresses are assigned
by server dynamically to clients on the network. DHCP is used for Dynamic IP
Addressing and requires a dedicated DHCP server on the network.
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
This is the method the wireless cards use to transmit data over the frequency
spectrum. The other method is frequency hopping. Direct sequence spreads the data
over one frequency range (channel) while frequency hopping jumps from one narrow
frequency band to another many times per second.
ESSID
An Infrastructure configuration could also support roaming capability for mobile
workers. More than one BSS can be configured as an Extended Service Set (ESS).
Users within an ESS could roam freely between BSSs while served as a continuous
connection to the network wireless stations and Access Points within an ESS must be
configured with the same ESSID and the same radio channel.
Ethernet
Ethernet is a 10/100Mbps network that runs over dedicated home/office wiring. Users
must be wired to the network at all times to gain access.
Gateway
A gateway is a hardware and software device that connects two dissimilar systems,
such as a LAN and a mainframe. In Internet terminology, a gateway is another name
for a router. Generally a gateway is used as a funnel for all traffic to the Internet.
IEEE
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
13
Infrastructure
An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration.
Infrastructure is applicable to enterprise scale for wireless access to central database,
or wireless application for mobile workers.
ISM Band
The FCC and their counterparts outside of the U.S. have set aside bandwidth for
unlicensed use in the so-called ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band.
Spectrum in the vicinity of 2.4 GHz, in particular, is being made available worldwide.
This presents a truly revolutionary opportunity to place convenient high-speed
wireless capabilities in the hands of users around the globe.
Local Area Network (LAN)
A LAN is a group of computers, each equipped with the appropriate network adapter
card connected by cable/air, that share applications, data, and peripherals. All
connections are made via cable or wireless media, but a LAN does not use telephone
services. It typically spans a single building or campus.
Network
A network is a system of computers that is connected. Data, files, and messages can
be transmitted over this network. Networks may be local or wide area networks.
PCMCIA
Personal Computer Memory Card International Association. Also a PCMCIA card is
also referred to PC Card.
Protocol
A protocol is a standardized set of rules that specify how a conversation is to take
place, including the format, timing, sequencing and/ or error checking.
SSID
A Network ID unique to a network. Only clients and Access Points that share the same SSID
are able to communicate with each other. This string is case-sensitive.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Simple Network Management Protocol is the network management protocol of TCP/IP. In
SNMP, agents-which can be hardware as well as software-monitor the activity in the various
devices on the network and report to the network console workstation. Control information
14
about each device is maintained in a structure known as a management information block.
Static IP Addressing
A method of assigning IP addresses to clients on the network. In networks with Static
IP address, the network administrator manually assigns an IP address to each computer. Once
a Static IP address is assigned, a computer uses the same IP address every time it reboots and
logs on to the network, unless it is manually changed.
Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
TCP/IP is the protocol suite developed by the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA).
It is widely used in corporate Internet works, because of its superior design for WANs. TCP
governs how packet is sequenced for transmission the network. The term “TCP/IP” is often
used generically to refer to the entire suite of related protocols.
Transmit / Receive
The wireless throughput in Bytes per second averaged over two seconds.
Wide Area Network (WAN)
A WAN consists of multiple LANs that are tied together via telephone services and / or fiber
optic cabling. WANs may span a city, a state, a country, or even the world.
