Making Connections

wireless network storage device in an existing WLAN. When the ASUS
Wireless "WL-HDD" is turned on, it searches for other existing Access
Points in its vicinity. If no other AP is found, it acts as an AP, while at the
same time allowing access to its hard disk drive. If an existing WLAN and
AP is found in the vicinity, it acts as a wireless shared hard disk that can be
accessed by other wireless clients in the WLAN.
