Wireless LAN Modes Using this Device

Ad Hoc Mode
(See Figure A-1)
"Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network connectivity between
multiple computers is established without a central wireless network device, typically known as Access Point(s).
Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-peer fashion. That is why Ad Hoc networks are also
known as peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hoc networks are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network
connectivity between multiple computers.
Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryption key settings are identically configured
on all computers in the Ad Hoc network.
