This chapter describes the package contents, PC Card description, system 
requirements, features & benefits, applications and network configurations 
of our wireless LAN products. 

The PC Card package contains the following items as shown in Figure 1-1 
1. One PC Card 
2. One Installation CD 
 

 

 

The PC Card is a standard PC Card that fits into any PCMCIA Card Type II 
slot. The PC Card has a LED indicator as shown in Figure 1-2. 
 

 

 

The LED shows three Link statuses: 
Blinking –, When the PC Card operate in Ad hoc (Peer-to-Peer) mode, no 
matter the wireless is connected or not. 
Solid Green – When the PC card setup a wireless connection with an 
Access Point. 

Off – No wireless activity.

Installation of the PC Card requires: 
1.  PC/AT compatible computer with PCMCIA Type II slot. 
2.  Windows 98//ME/2000/XP operating system environment. 
3.  Minimum 1.3M bytes free disk space for installing the PC Card driver 

and utility program. 

 

To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to 
create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a few of the possible 
wireless LAN PC card network configurations. The wireless LAN products 
can be configured as: 
 
1.  Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs. 
2.  Infrastructure for enterprise LANs or IP Sharing for 56K/ISDN 

TA/Cable/DSL Modem – Connect Internet and your SOHO network. 

 

This is the simplest network configuration that several computers equipped 
with the PC Cards that form a wireless network whenever they are within 
range of one another (Figure 1-3). In ad-hoc mode, each client, is peer-to-
peer, would only have access to the resources of the other client and 
requires no the access point. This is the easiest and least expensive way 
for the SOHO to set up a wireless network.
