●Ad-Hoc – to establish point-to-point wireless communication directly with other wireless client devices such as wireless network PCI Adapter. AdHoc Band: There are two bands available for selection- 11B and 11G Channel: The value of channel that AP will operate in. You can select the channel range of 1 to 11 for North America (FCC) domain and 1 to 13 for European (ETSI) domain and 1 to 14 for Japanese domain. - Page 15 Encryption: 4 options are available: Disable, Enable, WPA and WPA-PSK. Select Enable or Disable for WEP data encryption feature. If one of the two options is selected, it is required to select the Authentication mode from the next dropping list.
