installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used according to the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a par-ticular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-tion,
which is found by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment or devices
• Connect the equipment to an outlet other than the receiver’s
• Consult a dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications nor expressly approved by the party responsible

The Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A+BNotebook Adapter lets your notebook
communicate with today’s wireless network standard and prepares you for the
future. With one PCCard, you can connect with the 2.4GHz, 802.11b wireless
networks so prevalent in homes, businesses and public “hotspots” already, and
also a growing number of 5GHz, 802.11a networks that are spreading across
the country.
It’s simple to use. Just pop it into a PCCard slot, and run the included Setup
Wizard, which will walk you through the configuration. To keep your communications
secure, the PCCard supports up to 152-bit data encryption.
802.11b wireless networks are commonly found in corporate environments and
are used in homes for household Internet connectivity without the need for running
cables. They’re also popping up all over the country in coffee shops, air-ports,
hotels, convention centers, and other public spaces offering “on-the-go”
connectivity to mobile users. The 802.11a standard is almost five times faster
than 802.11b, and operates in the less crowded 5GHz radio band, but it’s not as
common — yet. It is quickly being deployed wherever higher-speed connectivi-ty
is desired.
Join the wireless revolution. With the Linksys Dual-Band Wireless Notebook
Adapter, you’ll be ready to connect to either type of wireless network, wherev-er
you go, now and in the future.

The Dual-Band Wireless A+BNotebook Adapter
Features
Chapter 2: Planning Your
Wireless Network
A wireless local area network (WLAN) is exactly like a regular local area net-work
(LAN), except that each computer in the WLAN uses a wireless device to
connect to the network. Computers in a WLAN share the same frequency
channel and SSID, which is an identification name for wireless devices.
Unlike wired networks, wireless networks have two different modes in which
they may be set up: infrastructure and ad-hoc. An infrastructure configura-tion
is a WLAN and wired LAN communicating to each other through an
access point. An ad-hoc configuration is wireless-equipped computers com-municating
directly with each other. Choosing between these two modes
depends on whether or not the wireless network needs to share data or periph-erals
with a wired network or not.
If the computers on the
wireless network need to
be accessed by a wired
network or need to share a
peripheral, such as a print-er,
with the wired network
computers, the wireless
network should be set up
in infrastructure mode.
(See Figure 2-1.) The
basis of infrastructure
mode centers around an
access point, which serves
as the main point of communications in a wireless network. Access points
transmit data to PCs equipped with wireless network cards, which can roam
within a certain radial range of the access point. Multiple access points can be
arranged to work in succession to extend the roaming range, and can be set up
to communicate with your Ethernet (wired) hardware as well.
Network Topology
Ad-Hoc versus Infrastructure Mode
Figure 2-1
If the wireless network is relatively small and needs to share resources only
with the other computers on the wireless network, then the ad-hoc mode can
be used. (See Figure 2-2.) Ad-hoc mode allows computers equipped with wire-less
transmitters and receivers to communicate directly with each other, elimi-nating
the need for an access point. The drawback of this mode is that, in Ad-Hoc
mode, wireless-equipped computers are not able to communicate with
computers on a wired network. And, of course, communication between the
wireless-equipped computers is limited by the distance and interference direct-ly
between them.
