Quick Installation Guide
Version 1.0.0.b5
April 2003
About Your ZyAIR
The ZyAIR is an IEEE 802.11b compliant wireless LAN PC card that fits into any
type II PCMCIA slot. Its maximum 11 Mbps data rate, which gives Ethernet
equivalent speed, is ideal in the corporate or home environment. Users enjoy the
wireless mobility within the coverage area. What’s more, the ZyAIR supports IEEE
802.1x authentication methods for enhanced security that protects the network from
intruders.
Ad-Hoc Application
An ad-hoc network consists of two or more computers communicating with one
another through the wireless network. No access points (APs) or existing wired
networks are needed.
Infrastructure Application
When wireless clients wish to access and share resources on the wired network, they
should use infrastructure mode. Wireless clients may move or roam from one
coverage area to another seamlessly without network interruption.
