•
Maximum - Selects maximum mode to let the access point buffer incoming messages
for the Adapter. The Adapter will detect the access point if any messages are waiting
periodically.
•
Normal - Normal mode uses maximum when retrieving a large number of packets,
then switches back to power save mode after retrieving the packets.
•
Off - Turns power saving off, thus powering up the Wireless PCI Adapter continuously
for a short message response time.
Network Type - There are basically two modes of networking:
•
Infrastructure - All wireless clients will connect to an access point or wireless router.
•
Ad-Hoc - Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer communication,
using wireless network adapters on each computer, such as two or more APPPCI300
wireless adapters.
Note:
1) An Infrastructure networ
devices or clients will connect to the wireless router or access point.
2) An Ad-Hoc network contains only clients, such as laptops with wireless desktop adapters. All
the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc mode to communicate.

modes. This mode also allows the selection of the channel that the Wireless Adapter uses.
The channels available depend on the regulatory domain. If the adapter finds no other ad
hoc adapters, the channel that the adapter starts the ad hoc network with will be selected
automatically. The Adapter must match the wireless mode and channel of the clients it
associates.

access point:
•
Auto - Automatic causes the adapter to attempt authentication using shared, but
