The data transfer rate can be auto-negotiated to 1, 2, 5. 5Mbps or up to 11Mbps and is compatible with any existing IEEE802.11b devices. With the Wirelss 11b Card Bus CB11B, you can roam between conference room and office without being disconnected the LAN cables; in addition, sharing files and printers can be easy tasks. The Wirelss 11b Card Bus CB11B is available to Microsoft Windows operating systems (Windows XP/2000/ME/ 98SE) and can be integrated into networking with either Ad-hoc mode (without an Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (with an Access Point). Wireless 11b Card Bus CB11B User’s Guide 1.2 How Wirelss 11b Card Bus CB11B works Ad-hoc Networking Mode --- An Ad-hoc (or "spontaneous") network is a local area network or other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary plug-in connections, in which some of the network devices are part of the network only for the duration of a communications session. Users on the network can share files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem. In this kind of network, new devices can be quickly added; however, users can only communicate with other wireless LAN computers that are in the wireless LAN workgroup, and are within range.

In an Infrastructure networking, the access point can manage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization. Additionally, the access point enables users on a wireless LAN to access an existing wired network, allowing wireless users to take advantage of the wired networks resources, such as Internet, email, file transfer, and printer sharing. The scale and range of the Infrastructure networking are larger and wider than that of the Ad-hoc networking.
