How are infrastructure and ad hoc networks different?
Wireless networks can operate in one of two modes: infrastructure or ad hoc.
In infrastructure mode, all devices on a wireless network communicate with each other through an access point
(wireless router).
In ad hoc mode, a computer with a wireless network adapter communicates directly with a printer equipped with a
wireless print server.
