Understanding the

Wireless Network

Wireless local area networks (WLAN) perform the exact same functions as wired

local area networks (LAN). Each computer in the WLAN uses a data radio device to

connect to the network, and all computers in the network share the same frequen-

cy and method for identifying wireless devices. Wireless local area networks differ

from wired local area networks only in their operating mode. The two operation

modes are Ad Hoc and Infrastructure.

Ad Hoc Mode

Ad hoc mode is a networking framework by which wireless devices or stations

communicate directly with each other, without the need for an access point or

wireless router/gateway.

Ad hoc mode is also called peer-to-peer mode or independent basic service set

(IBSS). This mode is useful when communicating among many computers locally

without the need to connect to printers or file servers on a wired LAN.

Infrastructure Mode

Infrastructure mode is a networking framework where devices communicate

with each other by first going through an access point or wireless router/gateway.

Infrastructure mode lets wireless devices communicate with each other or with a

wired network.

Two types of service can exist while in infrastructure mode:

Basic Service Set (BSS) - An access point connected to a wired network and a

set of wireless stations.

Extended Service Set (ESS) - A set of two or more basic service sets forming a

single subnetwork.

☞ Note: Corporate WLANs require infrastructure mode to use

services such as file servers or printers.

Setting Up

the Adapter

The instructions that follow in this chapter parallel the steps contained in the

Actiontec Connection 1-2-3® setup utility, which provides a visual, step-by-step guide

to setting up the USB Adapter. It is recommended the user run Connection 1-2-3

first, before attempting any other procedures.

M Caution: Do not plug in the Adapter until instructed during the

installation procedure.

1. Insert the Installation CD in the CD-ROM drive of the computer. Connection

1-2-3 starts automatically. Temporary files and drivers for the Adapter are

loaded onto the hard drive, then the first Connection 1-2-3 screen appears.

Read the onscreen instructions, then click Next.

☞ Note: If Connection 1-2-3 does not start automatically, click

Start from the desktop, then select Run. Type d:\c123.exe

(with “d” representing the drive letter of the computer’s CD-

ROM drive) in the “Open” text box, and click OK.
