Select the operating mode from the Operating Mode: drop-down list.
Infrastructure: Select Infrastructure to enable the terminal to transmit and
receive data with an AP. Infrastructure is the terminal default mode when
Mobile Companion initially appears.
Ad Hoc: Select Ad Hoc to enable the terminal to form its own local network
where mobile computers communicate peer-to-peer without APs using a
shared ESSID. Select the Long preamble check box if the terminal and its
profile are using a long preamble when transmitting data. A long preamble is
approximately 8 bytes of the packet header attached to the packet prior to
transmission. Devices in Ad Hoc mode are required to use the same
preamble length to interoperate. The terminal initiating the Ad Hoc network
sets the channel (using the Channel drop-down list) used by each peer in the
Ad Hoc network.
Select the country of operation for the terminal from the Country: drop-down
list. This ensures the terminal is using country code information compatible
with the country code data used by the associated AP.
