Getting Started - D-Link DWL-AG530 Instruction Manual

Getting Started

There are basically two modes of networking:
Infrastructure – using an access point or wireless router
such as the DWL-7100AP.
Ad-Hoc – directly connecting to another computer, for Peer-
to-Peer communication, using wireless network adapters on
each computer, such as two or more DWL-AG530 Wireless
PCI Adapters.
On the following pages we will show you an example of an Infrastructure
Network and an Ad-Hoc Network.
An Infrastructure network contains an access point or a wireless router.
