WIFI MODE
This function sets the type of wireless connection that the MR-
HD100 uses.
• MANAGED
Managed mode is used when making a wireless connection to
a structured LAN where central access points are used and
devices are managed through the network.
• ADHOC Peer-To-Peer (P2P)
Ad-hoc mode is a method for connecting wireless devices
directly to each other. Successful implementation of Ad hoc
mode requires that:
• All wireless adapters must be configured for ad hoc mode.
• All ad hoc wireless adapters must use the same ESSID and
channel number.
• Only a small number of devices, within close range, can be
in the ad hoc network. As number of devices and range
increase, performance falls.
• All wireless devices within range must be able to discover
and communicate in peer-to-peer fashion without
employing central access points. This includes broadband
wireless routers that use central access points.
• Ad-hoc networks cannot bridge to wired LANs or to the
Internet without installing a special-purpose gateway.
