Power Saving: The card supports advanced power management to extend battery life.
a. When set to “ off ”: the card does not use the power saving mechanism.
b. When set to “ Normal ”: the card enters into sleep status when it is inactive and only
wakes up periodically to receive some messages from the access point.
c. When set to “ Maximum ”: This case is similar to “ Normal ”, but it draws less battery
power as a result of less wake up frequently. This also leads to slower response to
network request.
Wireless Mode: Specifies “ 2.4GHz 11Mbps ”(802.11b) or “ 2.4GHz 54Mbps ” (802.11g)
operation. The WLAN card will automatically select the optimal mode from these selected
wireless modes.
Wireless mode When Starting Ad Hoc Network: Specifies a band to establish an ad
hoc network if no matching SSID is found after scanning all available modes. Here, you
can select three different wireless modes (
802.11b , 802.11g ) for the communication link.
