1Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card MP54G2 User’s GuideIntroductionMP54G2 (MS-6833) - Wireless 11g MiniPCI CardMSI MP54G2 (MS-6833) Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card (here-after called MP54G2), compliant with IEEE802.11g, is a high-efficiency wireless adapter for wireless networking at home,in office or in public places. The data rate can be up to 54Mbps and auto-negotiated to 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6Mbps(IEEE 802.11g), or 11, 5.5, 2, 1Mbps (IEEE802.11b).With MP54G2, you can roam between conference roomand office without being disconnected the LAN cables; inaddition, sharing files and printers can be easy tasks.The MP54G2 is available to Microsoft Windows operatingsystems (Windows® XP/2000/ME/98SE) and can beintegrated into networking with either Ad-hoc mode(computer-to-computer, without an Access Point) orInfrastructure mode (computer-to-access point, an AccessPoint is required).>>> 1.1
2Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card MP54G2 User’s GuideHow MP54G2 WorksAd-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network orother small network, especially one with wireless ortemporary plug-in connections, in which some of the networkdevices are part of the network only for the duration of acommunications session. Users in the network can sharefiles, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet witha shared modem. In this kind of network, new devices canbe quickly added; however, users can only communicatewith other wireless LAN computers that are in this wirelessLAN workgroup, and are within range.>>> 1.222
3Wireless 11g MiniPCI Card MP54G2 User’s GuideInfrastructure Mode : The difference between Infrastruc-ture network and Ad-hoc network is that the former oneincludes an Access Point. In an Infrastructure network, theAccess Point can manage the bandwidth to maximize band-width utilization. Additionally, the Access Point enables userson a wireless LAN to access an existing wired network,allowing wireless users to take advantage of the wired net-works resources, such as Internet, email, file transfer, andprinter sharing. The scale and range of the Infrastructurenetwork are larger and wider than that of the Ad-hocnetworking.22
