the drop-down menu to choose its SSID from the list of available devices.
Power Saving Mode: This option manages the power consumption of the PCI555WG.
CAM (Constantly Awake Mode):
Does not restrict the power use of the network card.
Power Saving Mode:
Automatically reduces the power used by the network card
when it is not in use.
CAM When AC Power:
sets the computer to use the CAM setting when connected to
a power outlet.
Network Type: Allows you to choose between two different configurations depending on
the hardware in your network.
Infrastructure:
Requires an 802.11b/g router or access point to be present; this is the
most popular configuration type for most situations.
Ad-Hoc:
Allows you to connect to another wireless computer or similar device
without the use of a router or access point.
Transmit Power: Reduces the amount of power that the PCI555WG uses to send
information to other devices on the network. This does not need to be adjusted in most
situations, and can affect the data transfer performance of the card in some
environments.
11B Preamble Type: Used only when the Ad-Hoc network type is selected, and adjusts the
length of the CRC block.
Auto:
Adjusts the preamble setting to whatever the remote device is configured to use
(recommended).
Long:
Forces the card to use the long preamble setting, regardless of the configuration
of other devices.
RTS Threshold: Sets the minimum packet sized required for the PCI555WG to send a
Request to Send (RTS). For packets smaller than the threshold size, the packets will be
transmitted directly to the wireless network: adjustable between
0
and
2312
bytes
(default setting recommended).
Fragment Threshold: Sets the maximum packet size that the PCI555WG will use to send
information to the wireless network. High values may decrease errors but slightly
reduce information transfer rates: adjustable
between
256
to
3212
bytes (default setting
recommended).
Channel: Used only when the Ad-Hoc
network type is selected, and changes the
channel the PCI555WG uses to connect to
other devices.
Authentication vs. Security
Tab
Authentication Type: This setting must match
the configuration of the wireless network to
which you are connecting.
