hoc) network; wireless access
points are not used.
Description
Define a recognizable profile name for you to identify the different
networks.
The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique
name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional
merging of two co-located WLANs.
You may specify a SSID for the card and then only the device with
the same SSID can interconnect to the card.
There are two kinds of network type described as follows.
Infrastructure – This operation mode requires the presence of an
802.11 Access Point. All communication is done via the Access
Point or Router.
Ad Hoc – Connect to another wireless cards in the Wireless LAN
network without through an Access Point or Router.
If this item is selected, the card will work in Ad Hoc mode.
