available channels are scanned for traffic, so there is no need to specify a 
channel. 
4.1.3 Setting the SSID 
The SSID is the Service Set IDentifier used by Access Points and stations 
to identify a wireless LAN.  Your PHILIPS WLAN Interface card scans the 
available channels looking for an Access Point (in Access Point type) or 
another station (in Peer-to-Peer type) which has specified this same 
SSID.  It then attempts to associate with these Access Points or stations 
to form a wireless LAN. 
To change the SSID, simply highlight it, type the new SSID, and click the 
Apply button. 
In typical infrastructure applications a company will use a single SSID for 
all Access Points.  If the radio is scanning and cannot find a channel when 
an Access Point is known to be in range, verify that the SSID is set 
correctly.   
4.1.4 Setting the Transmit Rate 
The Transmit Rate field specifies the rate at which the radio in your 
PHILIPS WLAN Interface card transmits and receives data.  You can view 
the available rates by clicking the down arrow at the right of the Transmit 
Rate field.
