Link Quality: Shows the link quality of the wireless LAN adapter with the Access
Point when operating under Infrastructure mode.
Signal Strength: Shows the wireless signal strength of the connection between the
wireless LAN adapter card with the Access Point.
Data Rate: Shows the statistics of data transfer, and the calculation is based on the
number of packets transmitted and received.
Configuration
This is the page where changes the basic settings of the wireless LAN adapter with
the minimum amount of effort to implement a secure wireless network environment.
SSID: Service Set Identifier, which is a unique name shared among all clients and
nodes in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for each clients and nodes
in the wireless network.
Wireless Mode: There are two types available for selection
●Infrastructure – to establish wireless communication with LAN and other
wireless clients through the use the Access Points.
●Ad-Hoc – to establish point-to-point wireless communication directly with
other wireless client devices such as wireless network PCI Adapter.
AdHoc Band: When using Wireless Mode for Ad-Hoc mode, select the AdHoc
Band from drop down list for 11b only, 11g only or Auto for both of 11b and 11g.
Channel: The value of channel that AP will operate in. User can find the channel
range of 1 to 11 for North America (FCC) domain and 1 to 13 for European (ETSI)
domain and 1 to 14 for Japanese domain.
WARNING: Country domain can't be choose by enduserr, because the incorrect
region may be in violation of applicable laws.
10
Power Mode: There are 3 modes to choose.
• Continuous Access Mode (default) – the wireless LAN adapter is constantly
operating with full power and it consumes the most power.
• Maximum Power Save – the wireless LAN adapter consumes the least power
and only operates when there is wireless network activity.
• Power Save – the wireless LAN adapter consumes the moderate level of
power.
Preamble: Select Long or Short Preamble type. Preamble is a sequence of bits
transmitted at 1Mbps that allows the PHY circuitry to reach steady-state
demodulation and synchronization of bit clock and frame start. Two different
preambles and headers are defined: the mandatory supported Long Preamble and
header, which interoperate with the 1 Mbit/s and 2 Mbit/s DSSS specification (as
described in IEEE Std 802.11), and an optional Short Preamble and header (as
described in IEEE Std 802.11b). At the receiver, the Preamble and header are
processed to aid in demodulation and delivery of the PSDU. The Short Preamble
and header may be used to minimize overhead and, thus, maximize the network
data throughput. However, the Short Preamble is supported only from the IEEE
802.11b (High- Rate) standard and not from the original IEEE 802.11. That means
that stations using Short-Preamble cannot communicate with stations implementing
the original version of the protocol. Click “Apply” for the changes to take effect.
Support Band: There are two functions for users select, including 11B and 11G.
The default setting is 11B and 11G are enabled, which is interoperable with both
11B and 11G devices.
Note: user must select one of 11B or 11G at least; otherwise the wireless
connection will not function.
