an AP connecting to a wired LAN, the clients in a Ad-Hoc network can
only share resources with the peers but not be able to access resources
on a wired network.
When this device is configured as a Station and operates in
Infrastructure mode, it will associate with an available AP installed on
Ethernet network. Thus the device that equipped with this Station can
access to the wired LAN via the associated AP.
To successfully associate with an AP, this device must be configured in
Infrastructure mode and use the same SSID and security settings with
the AP. It does not need to configure a channel since it will automatically
receive the channel assignment from the AP.
SSID: Enter a network name with a maximum limit of 32 characters. Also, you
can click Scan button to get a network list as below.

this AP’s resource. If the client has the wrong key or no key, it will fail
the authentication and will not be allowed to associate with this AP.
Open System makes the authentication be done through a pseudo
process, accepting all kinds of requests, and is mainly used in cases
where connectivity is more important than security.
