General Connection Setting   
Channel 
Selects the radio channel to be used for wireless networking. 
The channel setting of the wireless stations within a network 
should be the same. 
 
Parameter Description 
          Tx Rate 
There are several options including 
Auto/1/2/5.5/11/6/9/12/18/24/36/48/54Mbps for you to select. 
When the “Auto” is selected, the device will choose the most 
suitable transmission rate automatically. The higher data rate 
you designated in the network, the shorter distance is allowed 
between the adapter and the wireless stations. 
 
When the adapter works in 11b mode, the maximum data rate 
is 11Mbps so that there are only “Auto/1/2/5.5/11Mbps” 
options you can select. 
 
 
                    SSID 
The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique 
name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional 
merging of two co-located WLANs.   
 
You may specify a SSID for the adapter and then only the 
device with the same SSID can interconnect to the adapter. 
 
 
          Any 
If “Any“ check box is enabled, the adapter will survey and 
connect to one of the available wireless stations without 
checking the consistency of channel and SSID with the 
wireless station. 
 
 
                    Network Type 
Ad-Hoc – This mode enables wireless network adapters to 
connect without use of an AP or Router. Select this mode if 
there is no AP or Router in the network. 
 
Infrastructure – This operation mode requires the presence 
of an 802.11 Access Point. All communication is done via the 
Access Point or Router. 
 
 
          Change/Apply Clicking “Change/Apply“ will allow the configuration of the 
parameters in the “General Connection Setting“ tab. Clicking 
Apply will confirm and enable the adjusted settings. 
 
 
Encryption Setting 
In this block, users may enable/disable WEP and WPA 
encryption within the network. Please refer to Section 
3.3 for a more detailed description.
