Wireless Mode Setting
The wireless Mode settings allow the user to specify which wireless frequency and data rate the
wireless network is operating at. If all selections are chosen, the WLAN 802.11 a/b/g device
will automatically search all frequencies and data rates for wireless networks that match up to
the profile settings.
Wireless Mode when starting Ad-Hoc setting
The “Wireless Mode when starting ad-hoc setting” allows the user to determine the type of
ad-hoc network to be started. Note: This setting will only take effect if there are no other ad-
hoc networks with the same SSID currently operating within range. If existing ad-hoc
networks with the same SSID are currently operating, then the WLAN 802.11 a/b/g device
will connect using the frequency and data rate provided by the exiting ad-hoc network.
4-4 Diagnostic Tab
The diagnostic TAB displays the current data statistics for both receive and transmit.
Additional statistics and driver information can be displayed using the appropriate labeled
buttons.
