Icon
After installing your USB Adapter, you can connect to a wireless LAN.
Before you can connect to a network, you need to decide if you are connecting to
another wireless client or to an access point (you may easily switch between
modes if your requirements change). Use Ad-hoc mode if you are connecting
directly to another wireless client. Use Infrastructure mode if you are connecting to
an access point.
In either mode, the Service Set Identifier (SSID) and Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) must have the same settings. For more information, see "About Wireless
LANs" on page A-1.
