Infrastructure Mode depending on your network type. A brief explanation of each mode follows:
Ad-Hoc: This mode is used for a simple peer-to-peer network. This type of network
allows the sharing of local resources only between wireless clients without a wireless
Access Point (AP).
Infrastructure: This mode allows a wireless LAN to be integrated into an existing wired
network through an AP. Infrastructure type networks also permit roaming between Access
Points while maintaining connection to all network resources. Infrastructure mode
provides additional features, such as WEP security, power saving and extended range.
SSID: An acronym for Service Set Identifier, SSID is the unique name shared among all clients and
Access Points in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for all clients or Access Points
participating in the same network. The SSID is case sensitive and must not exceed 30 characters.
Ethernet Conversion: The RFC1042 mode is the 802.11 standard conversion method and is
selected by default. If compatibility with older wireless LAN systems is necessary select another
conversion implementation from the Ethernet Conversion drop down list.
Tx Rate: The transmit rate or Tx Rate selects the allowable transfer rates of the wireless client. To
optimize performance and range, the Tx Rate should be set to Fully Automatic, which will
30
Ambit Microsystems Corporation
automatically adjust the transfer speed for best performance and longest range.
Note: The Tx rate setting must be supported by the AP. If the AP does not support the Tx rate,
undesired results may occur.
WEP: An acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, WEP is an encryption scheme used to protect your
wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of 64-bit keys,128-bit keys to provide
access control to your network and encryption security for every data transmission. To decode a
data transmission, each wireless client on the network must use an identical 64-bit key,128-bit key.
NOTE: This feature is only available in Infrastructure Mode and must also be enabled on the
Access Point. Select the WEP tab to enable or disable this feature.
PS Mode: Power Saving Mode enables or disables the power saving features of your wireless
adapter. When enabled on a laptop, the power saving mode can reduce power consumption by the
wireless card and extend the battery life of your laptop. This setting is only implemented in a
network operating in Infrastructure mode.

Access Point - 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 wireless adapters, connected as an
independent wireless LAN.
Backbone - The core infrastructure of a network, the portion of the network that transports information from one
central location to another central location. The information is then off-loaded onto a local system.
Base Station - In mobile telecommunication, a base station is the central radio transmitter/ receiver that
maintains communication with the mobile radio telephone sets within range. In cellular and personal
communications applications, each cell or microcell has its own base station; each base station in turn
is interconnected with other cells’ base.
BSS - Stands for “Basic Service Set.” An Access Point associated with several wireless stations.
ESS - Stands for “Extended Service Set.” More than one BSS can be configured as an Extended Service Set. An
ESS is basically a roaming domain.
Ethernet - A popular local area data communications network, originally developed by Xerox Corp., which
accepts transmission from computers and terminals. Ethernet operates on 10 Mbps baseband
