DESCRIPTION
This is the Service Set IDentification name of the AP in an Infrastructure
wireless network or wireless station in an Ad-Hoc wireless network. For our
purposes, we define an Infrastructure network as a wireless network that uses
an AP and an Ad-Hoc network (also known as Independent Basic Service Set
(IBSS)) as one that doesn't. See
basic service sets (BSS) and extended service sets (ESS).
This field displays the MAC address of the AP in an Infrastructure wireless
network. It is randomly generated (so ignore it) in an Ad-Hoc wireless network.
This is the index number of the channel currently used by the associated AP in
an Infrastructure wireless network or wireless station in an Ad-Hoc wireless
network.
This field displays the strength of the AP's signal. If you must choose a channel
that's currently in use, choose one with low signal strength for minimum
interference.
"Network Mode" in this screen refers to your wireless LAN infrastructure and
WEP setup (refer to Chapter 5 on page
Network modes are: Infrastructure (same as an extended service set ESS)),
Infrastructure with WEP (WEP encryption is enabled), Ad-Hoc (same as an
independent basic service set IBSS)), or Ad-Hoc with WEP.
