11Mbps Wireless Ethernet Adapter User's Manual  11 Connecting the Ethernet Adapter to Your Network There are two network scenarios as below:       Ad-hoc  Networking Also known as a peer-to-peer network, an ad-hoc network is one that allows all workstations and computers in the network to act as servers to all other users on the network.    Users on the network can share files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem. However, with ad-hoc networking, users can only communicate with other wireless LAN computers that are in the same wireless LAN workgroup, and are within range.  <PC to Network Printer>   <PC to PC >     Infrastructure Networking Infrastructure networking differs from ad-hoc networking in that it includes an access point. Unlike the ad-hoc structure where users on the LAN contend the shared bandwidth, on an infrastructure network, the access point can manage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization.   Additionally, the access point enables users on a wireless LAN to access an existing wired network, allowing wireless users to take advantage of the wired networks resources, such as Internet, email, file transfer, and printer sharing.   Infrastructure networking has the following advantages over ad-hoc networking:  Extended range: each wireless LAN computer within the range of the access point can communicate with other wireless LAN computers within range of the access point.  Roaming: the access point enables a wireless LAN computer

11Mbps Wireless Ethernet Adapter User's Manual  28 Q4: Can I run an application from a remote computer over the wireless network? A: This will depend on whether or not the application is designed to be used over a network. Consult the application’s user guide to determine if it supports operation over a network.  Q5: Can I play computer games with other members of the wireless network? A: Yes, as long as the game supports multiple players over a LAN (local area network). Refer to the game’s user guide for more information.  Q6: What is the IEEE 802.11b standard? A: The IEEE 802.11b Wireless LAN standards subcommittee, which is formulating a standard for the industry. The objective is to enable wireless LAN hardware from different manufacturers to communicate.  Q7: What’s Ad-hoc? A: An Ad-hoc wireless LAN is a group of computers, each with a WLAN adapter, connected as an independent wireless LAN. Ad-hoc wireless LAN is applicable at a departmental scale for a branch or SOHO operation.  Q8: What is Infrastructure? A: An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration. Infrastructure is applicable to enterprise scale for wireless access to central database, or wireless application for mobile workers.  Q9: What is Roaming? A: Roaming is the ability of a portable computer user to communicate continuously while moving freely throughout an area greater than that covered by a single Wireless Network Access Point. Before using the roaming function, the workstation must make sure that it is the same SSID with the Wireless Access Point of dedicated coverage area.  Q10: What is Spread Spectrum? A: Spread Spectrum technology is a wideband radio frequency technique developed by the military for use in reliable, secure, mission-critical communications systems. It is designed to trade off bandwidth efficiency for reliability, integrity, and security. In the other words, more bandwidth is consumed than in the case of narrowband transmission, but the trade off produces a signal that is, in effect, louder and thus easier to detect, provided that the receiver knows the parameters of the spread-spectrum signal being broadcast. If a receiver
11Mbps Wireless Ethernet Adapter User's Manual  29is not turned to the right frequency, a spread-spectrum signal looks like background noise. There are two main alternatives, Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS).  Q11: What is WEP? A: WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a data privacy mechanism based on a 64-bit or 128-bit as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.   7. Glossary  This section explains the glossary of terms used in this manual that are required to configure the network.  Wireless Channel If there is more than one Wireless LAN network with different ESS-ID on the same floor, and they are communicating with each other, the baud rate may be slowed, due to the same radio frequency being used. If this happens, you can still communicate regardless of other LAN networks by using to use different frequencies (wireless channels). Note: If they are communications using the wireless LAN, be sure to set all the Units the same wireless channel.  DHCP Server When configuring the network TCP/IP, be sure to set the IP address in each personal computer and other devices. When there is a DHCP server on the network, it can assign IP addresses automatically to the personal computers and the Access Point on the network. For the Windows NT server and dial-up router, or other DHCP server function, refer to the Windows 2000, Windows NT, or dial-up router manual, or consult the manufacturer.    ESS-ID This ID is used to prevent cross-communication during communication between the Access Point and personal computers within the wireless LAN. The Wireless LAN personal computers that have the same ESS-ID as the Access Point can communicate with the Access Point. The ESS-ID is case sensitive. You can enter a maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters, and the underline "_".  LAN (Local Area Network) Read as one word. A LAN is a network in a comparatively small area, such as campus or
11Mbps Wireless Ethernet Adapter User's Manual  30within a single building. The LAN baud rate varies from 10 Mbps to 100 Mbps.  MAC Address (Media Access Control Address) The MAC address is a physical address specific to each network card. The MAC address is configured from a total of six bytes as follows: A vendor code comprising the lead three bytes and a 3-byte user code. The vendor code is managed and assigned by IEEE. The user code is managed using a unique (unduplicated) number from the network card manufacturer. That is, the MAC address is assigned as a physical address unique throughout the world. In an Ethernet LAN, the MAC address is used as a base to create a frame for sending and receiving.  TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) TCP/IP is a protocol equivalent to the network and transport levels of the OSI reference model, and it is defined using RFC. Consequently, different terminals can communicate with each other using TCP/IP. • Normally, TCP/IP includes the application protocols TELNET and FTP. • TCP/IP is the standard Internet protocol.  WEP (Encryption) By setting an encryption key in the Access Point, you can prevent wireless packets from being decrypted externally.  Firmware Firmware is the name given to the software (programs) built into hardware such as the router, modem, and terminal adapter. This software is built into the hardware, so it can be said to be in-between hardware and software.  Protocol Protocols are the procedures and regulations for sending and receiving data between the network terminals. For example, if two computers are communicating, you can send the correct information according to the regulations by formatting all required information. The protocol such as which terminal sends first, what type of message, what type of message the receiving terminal should send in reply, the data format, and responses to communications errors are same of examples.  Roaming Function Using the roaming function and moving from one room to another room, you can switch the Access Point automatically. With the roaming function, you can easily move from the office
11Mbps Wireless Ethernet Adapter User's Manual  31to the conference room while maintaining access to the network.   8.
