Part#: WP-854A

    Being 5 times faster than the speed of 802.11b network standard devices, the innovative 802.11g standards lets the wireless network become incredibly easier and faster (up to 54Mbps) than ever. Your 802.11b/g Wireless LAN certainly will bring you into such a high-speed networking sphere. The easiness of installation and configuration add up more enjoyments while you are operating the network in either an independent mode or an infrastructure mode. The former, which is also known as peer-to -peer or ad-hoc network lets you directly make connection with other wireless-equipped computers, and the later, the so-called infrastr5ucture network, allows you to communicate with wired LAN via an access point.

• To Share Your Printer with Your Network Member(s)
• To Access the Shared Folder(s)/File(s) of Your Network Members(s)
• To Use the Shared Printer(s) of Your Network Member(s)

    In fact, the network applications of the IEEE802.11g PCI adapter are the same as they are in a wired network environment. You may refer to the following 3 examples of Surveying the Network Neighborhood, File Sharing and Using the Shared Folder.

Wireless Mode
You have two options of Wireless Mode: Infrastructure and 802.11 Ad Hoc.
1, Infrastructure Mode
    In infrastructure mode, devices communicate with each other by first going through an Access Point (AP). Wireless devices can communicate with each other or can communicate with a wired network. When one AP is connected to wired network
and a set of wireless stations, it is referred to as a BSS (Basic Service Set).

2, Ad Hoc Mode
    Ad Hoc mode is also called peer-to-peer mode or independent Basic Service Set (IBSS). In Ad Hoc mode, devices communicate directly with each other without
using an Access Point (AP).
 

Status LED
    There is 1 Status LED on the IEEE802.11b PCI Adapter, by which you can check the network connectivity status.

• Off: Power off.
• Blinking Green: The adapter  is powered on.
• Blinking Green With Steady Green: Wireless connection is linked.
