Configuration
The Configuration tab contains several fields where the current parameters of the
Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card can be viewed and changed. You will see
current configuration information in terms of ESSID, Network Type, Power Saving
Mode and Tx Rate. Upon modification of parameters for the Wireless LAN
Compact Flash Card, click the Apply button to make the changes take effect.
ESSID
The ESSID is a unique ID given to the Access Point. Wireless clients associating
to Access Points must have the same ESSID. The default value Auto Detect
means when the Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card starts to work, it will associate
with any Access Point that gives the fastest response. You may also enter a
specific ESSID (Access Point) you desire to connect with. It is recommended
you specify an ESSID for your Wireless LAN Compact Flash Card. This will
prevent your computer from unintentionally connecting to a different wireless
network.
