Infrastructure Mode
The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this
mode, all wireless communications between two computers have to be
via the AP no matter the AP is wired to Ethernet network or stand-alone.
If used in stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent
wireless LANs by acting a repeater, which effectively doubling the
distance between wireless stations as shown in
Figure 1-4.
