The 802.11b Wireless LAN USB Stick aims to let your desktop computer quickly and seamlessly
communicate with 802.11b (at up to 11 Mbps) networks. Wireless LAN is local area networking without
wires, which uses radio frequencies to transmit and receive data between PC’s or other network
devices. With this wireless LAN USB Stick, surfing on the Internet couldn’t be any easier. Simply insert
the USB Stick into the USB port of your computer, launch the attached friendly-interfaced
program –
WLAN PRISM3 IEEE802.11b
to configure the USB stick, and then you will have been ready
to experience how the LAN (local area network) can be carried in your palm or pocket. You can operate
the network in either an independent mode or an infrastructure mode. The former, which is also known
as peer-to-peer or ad-hoc network, lets you directly make connection with other wireless-equipped
computers, and the later, the so-called infrastructure network, allows you to communicate with wired
LAN via an access point.
To obtain most benefits your 802.11b Wireless LAN USB Stick provides, please read this manual
carefully before using it.
