Network Mode:
If you want to connect with an Access Point, please set to
“Infrastructure” mode. If you have more stations and just want to set
them as local network, please set the mode to “Ad-Hoc” mode.
¾
Network SSID:
The SSID differentiates one Wireless LAN group name from another;
so all access points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific
Wireless LAN group name must use the same SSID. A device will not
be permitted to join the BSS unless it can provide the unique SSID.
10
If the SSID parameter is “ANY”, it will detect the strongest signal of
the wireless station.
¾
Channel:
It shows radio channel numbers that used for Wireless LAN
networking.
The channel number can be set only under the Ad-Hoc operation
mode. In Ad-Hoc mode stations, each station must have the same
channel numbers and SSID.
In Infrastructure mode, the Wireless PCI Adapter will automatically
detect the channel number of the Access Point.
Security: the setting of the Network Encryption.
This function is used to protect wireless communication from
eavesdropping. A secondary function of encryption is to prevent
unauthorized access to a wireless network, and it can be achieved by
using the Encryption function.
Click the Enable Encryption to activate the security of the PCI
Adapter.
¾
Key Setting #1 ~ #4:
You can type the key that you want to use from Key#1 to Key #4, and
the key that you type will be the encryption between the station that
you connected with.
If you select 64bit in Hex format, you must type 10 values in the
following range (0~F, hexadecimal), or 64bit in ASCII format, you
must type 5 values in the following range (0~9, A~Z and a~z
Alphanumeric).
If you select 128bit in Hex format, you must type 26 values (0~F,
hexadecimal), or 128bit in ASCII format, you must type 13 values in
the following range (0~9, A~Z and a~z Alphanumeric).
11
If you select 256bit in Hex format, you must type 58 values (0~F,

output power from Minimum, 12.5%, 25%, 50%,100% or Auto.
¾
Preamble Type:
The usage of the preamble is to limit the packet size of the data to
transmit. It is recommended to choose the short preamble when the
link quality is bad, it is to prevent the wasting time of resending a long
packet that is lost. The Default is Auto which access short and long
preamble.
13
¾
Authentication Type:
Open System: with the same WEP key between the stations, the
stations don’t need to be authenticated, and this algorithm was set to
default.
Shared Key: with the same WEP key between the stations in this
Authentication algorithm, this type will use packets with encryption
by transferring a challenge text which will be acknowledge by both
side of the stations. In order to choose which authentication algorithm
will be used, you must know which one the station supports this
algorithm first.
¾
Fragment Threshold:
Fragmentation Threshold is a way of transmitting the packets that will
be fragmented. Choose a setting within a range of 256 to 2432. It is
recommended to fragment the packet when the link quality is bad, it is
to prevent the wasting time of resending a long packet that is lost.
¾
RTS/CTS Threshold:
The RTS/CTS Threshold is a station initiates the process by sending a
RTS frame, the other ends receives the RTS and responds with a CTS
frame, the station must receive a CTS frame before sending the data
frame. This is to prevent the collisions by each station. Choose a
setting within a range of 256 to 2432. It is recommended limiting a
long packet to prevent each station waiting too long to transmit a data.
