Introduction >>> 1.1 PC54G2 (MS-6834) - Wireless 11g PCI Card PC54G2 (MS-6834) Wireless 11g PCI Card, compliant with IEEE802.11g, is a high-efficiency wireless adapter for wireless networking at home, in office or in public places. The data transmission rate can be up to 54 Mbps and autonegotiated to 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6 Mbps (IEEE802.11g), or 11, 5.5, 2, 1 Mbps (IEEE802.11b). With PC54G2 (MS-6834), 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 PC54G2 (MS-6834) is available to Microsoft Windows operating systems (Windows® XP/2000/ME/98SE) and can be integrated into networking with either Ad-hoc mode (computer-to-computer, without an Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (computer-to-access point, an Access Point is required). >>> 1.2 How PC54G2 (MS-6834) works Ad-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network, especially one with wireless or temporary plug-in connections. Therefore, some of the network devices are part of the network only for the duration of a communications session. Users in the network can share files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a shared Gateway or Access Point. In this kind of network, new devices can be quickly added; however, users can only communicate with other wireless LAN devices that are in this wireless LAN workgroup, and are within range. PC54G2 (MS-6834) Wireless 11g PCI Card Infrastructure Mode : The difference between Infrastructure network and Ad-hoc network is that the former one includes an Access Point. In network environment, the Access Point can manage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization. Moreover, 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.
