Save the configuration
The device is now configured. Save the parameters to the device by clicking the
Apply button. The device will restart. After about 5-10 s you should see the device
trying to connect to the WLAN in the status bar.

Verifying the WLAN connection
When connecting to the computer in ad-hoc mode, make sure that the computer is
still connected (i.e. a timeout has not caused the computer to disconnect from the
network). Returning to the Status tab, see Figure 17 on Page 23:
1. The connection status should become Connected.
2. The connection speed should be between 1 and 54 Mbit/s (ad-hoc is
supporting max 11 Mbit/s) depending on the received signal strength and
data amount to be sent.
3. The signal strength should be better than −75 dBm.
You may want to check the Info tab as well, see Figure 18 on Page 24, and verify
that the “Device IP Address” is a valid address on your network.
