General
Profile Name
Enter a suitable name for this profile. Each profile must have a unique
name.
SSID
Enter the SSID of the wireless network you wish to join.
·
In
Infrastructure
mode, this may be left blank; this device will then
join any wireless network it can.
This is only possible if the Access Point is broadcasting its SSID,
and the security settings for this profile match the security settings
on the Access Point.
·
If more than one Access Point is available with this profile, the one
with the strongest signal will be used.
Network Type
Select the desired option:
·
Ad Hoc
- only an Ad Hoc network will be used; Infrastructure
networks will be ignored.
·
Infrastructure
- only an Infrastructure network will be used; Ad
hoc networks will be ignored.
Channel No.
This field determines which operating frequency will be used.
·
If the network type is
Infrastructure
, only the
Auto
channel
selection is available, because this station must use the Channel
used by the Wireless network it is joining.
·
For
Ad-hoc
mode, you can set the Channel to use. But to join an
existing Wireless network, this station must adopt the Channel
already in use, so this setting is only meaningful when creating a
new Wireless network.
