Communicating with an Access Point (infrastructure)

providing an Access Point, for example the Sony PCWA-A320 Access Point. The Access Point bridges the
wireless and wired LAN and acts as a central controller for the Wireless LAN. The Access Point coordinates
transmission and reception from multiple wireless devices within a specific range.
