Link Info Tab
State
The field will display the current state of the wireless adapter.
1. Associated - means that the wireless adapter is connected to
another wireless adapter or Access Point / Wireless Gateway
Router. The MAC address of the wireless adapter or Access Point
will be displayed in hex format i.e. BSS ID (Basic Service Set ID) =
00:40:05:AC:11:32. Networking is available when the wireless
adapter is associated to an Access point or another wireless
adapter.
2.
Scanning - means that the node is searching for an available
Access Point and trying to detect the SSID (Service Set ID) of an
Access Point within range.
NOTE: This field will also display an error message if for
some reason the driver failed to initialize.
Rescan
Pressing the rescan button will cause the wireless adapter to look
for a connection. When the wireless adapter is set to
"Infrastructure" mode, the wireless adapter will scan all available
channels continuously until it finds one or more Access Points with
a matching SSID. At that point it will attempt to authenticate and
associate with the Access Point.
Ad Hoc
When the wireless is set to "Ad Hoc" mode, the wireless adapter
will scan for 5 seconds looking for an existing Ad Hoc network
using the same SSID. If one is not found the driver will "Start" its
own Ad Hoc network.
Current Channel and Current Tx Rate
Shows the selected channel and transmit rate that are currently
used by the wireless adapter for an active connection.
