2. Introduction
The TEW-303PI Wireless PCI Adapter is an enhanced 802.11b high-
performance, wireless adapter that supports high-speed wireless networking at
home, at work or in public places.
Unlike most 802.11b network cards, the TEW-303PI provides speeds of up to 22
Mbps (compared to the standard 11 Mbps) when used with other TRENDware
products.
The TEW-303PI is also compatible with existing 802.11b devices.
It is an ideal way to connect computer to a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN.)
After completing the steps outlined in the
Quick Installation Guide
(included in
the package) you will have the ability to share information and resources, such as
files and printers, and take full advantage of a “connected” environment for work
or play!
The TEW-303PI includes software drivers for the most popular Microsoft
Windows operating systems (Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Me,
Windows 98) and can be integrated into a larger network, running, in either Ad
Hoc mode (without an Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (with an Access
Point.)
Please take a look at our
Getting Started
section in this manual to see
examples of typical network setups using the TEW-303PI in both
Infrastructure
and
Ad-Hoc
modes.
