[. . . ] Data Encryption: Select Enabled or Disabled. Authentication: Open Authentication - The CardBus is visible to all devices on the network. Shared Authentication ­ Allows communication only with other devices with identical WEP settings. Auto - Will automatically adjust to the Authentication mode of the wireless access point or router. If the network you are using is a computer-to-computer network or ad hoc network, no access points are used. You may check the box "This is a computer to computer (ad hoc) network; no access points are used" to enable this option. [. . . ] On the right side of the screen you may click Move Up to move the selected WLAN up in the order it is displayed on the Preferred WLANs screen. You may click Move Down to move the selected WLAN down in the order in which it is displayed. The Advance button allows the user to set the WLAN type to connect: connect to non-preferred networks by checking the option. When you are done entering the settings and options for the wireless network click on OK, Cancel, or Apply. OK places the settings into effect and closes the graphical user interface (GUI). Under the Status Tab you will find information on the connection state, hardware information, and advanced state. infrastructure and ad hoc network, infrastructure network only, or ad hoc network only. You may also automatically 13 3. 1 Status Tab After clicking on the Configuration Utility icon, the Status screen will display the settings for the CardBus: SSID: The Service Set Identifier is the name assigned to the wireless network. The factory SSID setting is default. BSSID: The CardBus hardware MAC address Network Type: The Network Type have three mode (Please see the Getting Option section in this manual for an explanation of these three modes. ) Frequency: 802. 11g indicates that the CardBus is communicating in the 2. 4GHz band. Data Encryption: You can see if WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is Enabled or Disabled here. Speed: This is display wireless and wireless connecting Speed. Authentication State: 14 This is display Authentication State, it's to provide N/A and Connected two state. Signal Strength: A colored bar shows the intensity of the radio signals in the network Under Hardware Information the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the hardware (WLAN CardBus card) is given. Under the Option Tab general settings and advanced settings are shown. 3. 2 Option Tab Under General Setting, Auto launch when Windows starts up: The WLAN automatically launches when Windows starts up. Remember mini status position: Resident in the memory 15 Auto hide mini status: Auto hide the tools Set mini status always on top: It will lock the station. have set aside bandwidth for unlicensed use in the so-called ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band. Spectrum in the vicinity of 2. 4 GHz, in particular, is being made available worldwide. This presents a truly revolutionary opportunity to place convenient high-speed wireless capabilities in the hands of users around the globe. 20 Local Area Network (LAN) A LAN is a group of computers, each equipped with the appropriate network adapter card connected by cable/air, that share applications, data, and peripherals. All connections are made via cable or wireless media, but a LAN does not use telephone services. Protocol A protocol is a standardized set of rules that specify how a conversation is to take place, including the format, timing, sequencing and/ or error checking. SSID A Network ID unique to a network. Only clients and Access Points that share the same SSID are able to communicate with each other. Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Simple Network Management Protocol is the network management protocol of TCP/IP. In SNMP, agents-which can be hardware as well as software-monitor the activity in the various devices on the network and report to the network console workstation. Control information about each device is maintained in a structure known as a management information block. 21 Static IP Addressing A method of assigning IP addresses to clients on the network. In networks with Static IP address, the network administrator manually assigns an IP address to each computer. Once a Static IP address is assigned, a computer uses the same IP address every time it reboots and logs on to the network, unless it is manually changed. [. . . ] It is widely used in corporate Internet works, because of its superior design for WANs. The term "TCP/IP" is often used generically to refer to the entire suite of related protocols. Transmit / Receive The wireless throughput in Bytes per second averaged over two seconds. Wide Area Network (WAN) A WAN consists of multiple LANs that are tied together via telephone services and / or fiber optic cabling. [. . . ]
