1. Introduction
The XPC 802.11b/g Wireless Kit aims to let your XPC quickly and
seamlessly communicate with a 802.11b/g (at up to 54 Mbps)
networks. Wireless networking uses radio frequencies to transmit
and receive data between your XPC’s and other network devices.
With this Wireless Kit, surfing on the Internet couldn’t be any easier.
Simply install the USB connector to the reserve header on
mainboard, launch the attached friendly-interfaced program- Shuttle
Wireless tool to configure the Module, and you will be ready to
experience a LAN (local area network) that can be accessed
anywhere. You can operate the network in either an independent
mode or an infrastructure mode. The former, which is also known
as peer-to-peer or ad-hoc network, lets you directly make connec-
tion with other wireless-equipped computers, and the later, the so-
called infrastructure network, allows you to communicate with wired
LAN via an access point. To obtain the complete benefits your XPC
