The following list describes some of the many applications made possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs: 1. Difficult-to-wire environments There are many situations where wires can not or not easily be laid. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive. 2. Temporary workgroups Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibitions, disaster-recovery, temporary office and construction sites where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed. 3. The ability to access real-time information Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time information while dealing with patients, serving customers and processing information. 4. Frequently changed environments Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently rearrange the workplace. 5. Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network. 6. Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and other changes with wireless LANs. 7. Wired LAN backup Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission-critical applications running on wired networks. 8. Training/Educational Facilities
3Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to information, information exchanges, and learning. 1- 6 Network Configurations To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a few of the possible wireless LAN USB Adapter network configurations. The wireless LAN products can be configured as: 1. Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs. 2. Infrastructure for enterprise LANs. 3. IP Sharing for 56K/ISDN TA/Cable/DSL Modem – Connect Internet and your SOHO network. Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Mode This is the simplest network configuration that several computers equipped with the USB Adapters that form a wireless network whenever they are within range of one another (Figure 1-3). In ad-hoc mode, each client, is peer-to-peer, would only have access to the resources of the other client and requires no the access point. This is the easiest and least expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless network. Figure 1-3 Peer to PeerWireless LAN USB AdapterWireless LAN USB AdapterWireless LAN USB AdapterWireless LAN USB Adapter
4Infrastructure Mode The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this mode, all wireless communications between two computers have to be via the AP no matter the AP is wired to Ethernet network or stand-alone. If used in stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by acting a repeater, which effectively doubling the distance between wireless stations as shown in Figure 1-4. Figure 1-4 Extended-range independent WLAN using AP as repeater If wired to an Ethernet network as shown in Figure 1-5, the AP serves as a bridge and provides the link between the server and the wireless clients. The wireless clients can move freely throughout the coverage area of the AP while remaining connected to the server. Since the AP is connected to the wired network, each client would have access to server resources as well as to other clients Wireless LAN USB AdapterWireless LAN Router/APInfrastructureWireless LAN USB Adapter Wireless LAN USB Adapter
5 Figure 1-5 Single AP bridge Access points have a finite range, on the order of 50 meters indoor and 100 meters outdoors. In a very large facility such as an enterprise, a warehouse, or on a college campus, it will probably be necessary to install more than one access point to cover an entire building or campus, as shown in Figure 1-6. In this scenario, access points hand the client off from one to another in a way that is invisible to the client, ensuring unbroken connectivity. Wireless clients can roam seamlessly between different coverage areas and remain connected to the network.

6Wireless Router and IP Sharing In infrastructure mode, in addition to acting as a bridge between an Ethernet and wireless network, the AP can be configured as a wireless router and IP sharing device for Internet access as shown in Figure 1-7. You don’t have to buy an expensive router. Nor you have to buy several modems and setup phone lines. Just share one AP, one Modem, single dial-up account, and one phone line, dozens of network users can go surfing the Internet concurrently.

36Chapter 4 Troubleshooting This chapter describes the problems and corresponding solutions that may occur when installing a USB Adapter. Symptom Solution Windows does not detect the USB Adapter when installed. Verify that the USB Adapter is properly inserted into the USB Interface. Check whether the computer has a Plug and Play BIOS. Windows 98/ME/2000/XP might not detect the USB Adapter if a previous installation of the USB Adapter was cancelled before it was finished. Remove the previous driver, and redo the installation again. Driver fails to load A resource conflict could exist. For Windows 98/ME/2000/XP, use the Device Manager to resolve resource conflicts. Select System from the Control Panel, then click on the Device Manager tab.
37Device conflict on a Windows system A device conflict under Windows 98/ME/2000/XP may be related to the USB Adapter. For Windows 98/ME/2000/XP, use the Computer properties to identify the used I/O port addresses and IRQ values. If there is a device conflict, select alternative settings for I/O Base Address or IRQ values. If you know which device is conflicting with the USB Adapter, you have the option of changing that device’s I/O address or IRQ instead of changing the USB Adapter. No resource conflicts were detected, but the wireless station does not attach to the network Verify that the SSID of the USB Adapter matches that of the access point. Use the Network Configuration Properties Application in the Control Panel to modify the SSID. Verify that the Network Mode of the USB Adapter is configured correctly.
38 Nonfunctioning card LEDThe USB Adapter is not powered on. The cause may be:  No Driver loaded or installed.  Adapter – Driver mismatch which prevented the driver from loading.  Device conflicts which prevented the driver from loading. Actions:  Verify that a driver has been installed.  Determine if there is a conflict with another device. Weak signal or intermittent connection. Try reorienting the antenna. The USB Adapter antenna is attached to the two sides of the USB Adapter. For best use of the antenna: Keep the area around the antenna clear from materials that could block radio transmission, such as metal objects, electronic devices, and cordless telephones. If your signal is weak, change the direction of the antenna slightly. If necessary, move your notebook computer a few inches to find a better signal. Use the Link Quality and Signal Strength display in the Monitor Utility to determine the best location and orientation for a network connection.
