supported Network “Modes”. The modes displayed will have three values:
“Infrastructure”, “Ad Hoc”.
Infrastructure-
The infrastructure mode of operation requires the
presence of an
802.11b Access Point.
All communication is done via the Access Point, which
relays packets to other wireless clients in the BSS as
well as to modes on a wired network such as Ethernet.
Ad Hoc-
This is the 802.11b peer-to-peer mode of operation. All
communication is done from Client to Client without the
use of an Access Point. 802.11 Ad Hoc networking use
the same SSID for establishing the wireless connection.
In this mode the Channel number will be found
automatically.
