3.3.2 Ad-hoc Mode

This is the simplest network configuration with several computers equipped with
the PC Cards that form a wireless network whenever they are within range of one
another. In ad-hoc mode, each client is peer-to-peer, would only have access to
the resources of the other client and does not require an access point. This is the
easiest and least expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless network.
Profile: Enter a name for the profile; this does not need to be the same
as the SSID.
SSID: Enter the SSID of the network or select one from the drop-down
list. The SSID is a unique name shared among all points in your wireless
network. The SSID must be identical for all points in the network, and is
case-sensitive.
Network Type: Select Ad-hoc from the drop-down list.
TX Power: Select a transmit power from the drop-down list. If your
notebook is connected to external power then select 100% or auto, if
not, select one of the lower values for power saving.
