General Connection Setting

Channel Selects the radio channel to be used for wireless networking.

The channel setting of the wireless stations within a network

should be the same.

Parameter Description

Tx Rate There are several options including

Auto/1/2/5.5/11/6/9/12/18/24/36/48/54Mbps for you to select.

When the “Auto” is selected, the device will choose the most

suitable transmission rate automatically. The higher data rate

you designated in the network, the shorter distance is allowed

between the adapter and the wireless stations.

When the adapter works in 11b mode, the maximum data rate

is 11Mbps so that there are only “Auto/1/2/5.5/11Mbps”

options you can select.

SSID The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique

name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional

merging of two co-located WLANs.

You may specify a SSID for the adapter and then only the

device with the same SSID can interconnect to the adapter.

Any If “Any“ check box is enabled, the adapter will survey and

connect to one of the available wireless stations without

checking the consistency of channel and SSID with the

wireless station.

Network Type Ad-Hoc – This mode enables wireless network adapters to

connect without use of an AP or Router. Select this mode if

there is no AP or Router in the network.

Infrastructure – This operation mode requires the presence

of an 802.11 Access Point. All communication is done via the

Access Point or Router.

Change/Apply Clicking “Change/Apply“ will allow the configuration of the

parameters in the “General Connection Setting“ tab. Clicking

Apply will confirm and enable the adjusted settings.

Encryption Setting In this block, users may enable/disable WEP and WPA

encryption within the network. Please refer to Section

3.3 for a more detailed description.
