Infrastructure Mode :
The difference between Infrastruc-
ture network and Ad-hoc network is that the former one
includes an Access Point. In an Infrastructure network,
the Access Point can manage the bandwidth to maximize
bandwidth utilization. Additionally, the Access Point
enables users on a wireless LAN to access an existing
wired network, allowing wireless users to take advantage
of the wired networks resources, such as Internet, email,
file transfer, and printer sharing. The scale and range of
the Infrastructure networking are larger and wider than
that of the Ad-hoc networking.
