Infrastructure Wireless LAN
The SMC2755W can also provide access to a wired LAN for
wireless workstations. An integrated wired/wireless LAN is called
an Infrastructure configuration. A Basic Service Set (BSS) consists
of a group of wireless PC users, and an access point that is directly
connected to the wired LAN. Each wireless PC in this BSS can talk
to any computer in its wireless group via a radio link, or access
other computers or network resources in the wired LAN
infrastructure via the access point.
