Note: You will have at least one profile named ANY, which allows a link with an Access Point or another
Wireless LAN PC Card equipped computer at the given time. When you click the Defaults button under the
tab, a profile of the current connection is created.

Network Name
Network Name is also known as SSID, standing for Service Set Identifier, must be unique to
distinguish itself as a particular wireless network, and all wireless points in this network area share
the same SSID. Type the identical SSID in the Network Name field to associate with access points
or stations within the specified wireless LAN. To change the Network Name, highlight the name in
the box, edit a new SSID, and then click Apply to save the changes.

Network Type
Two network types are offered here: Access Point and Peer-to-Peer. Choose the intended type
from the two options. The Access Point mode, which is also known as the Infrastructure mode,
allows you to communicate with a wired network via an access point. If you attempt to operate this
mode, you must indicate the identical Network Name to make a communication with the intended
access point. On the other hand, the Peer-to-Peer mode provides you with the so-called Ad-Hoc
communication, which means each wireless-equipped computers within a group is able to connect
others as an independent wireless LAN without the use of an access point. Each station within this
Ad-Hoc network has to define the same Network Name and Peer-to-Peer Channel.

Peer-to-Peer Channel
This command is only available while you are operating the Peer-to-Peer mode, the so-called
Ad-Hoc mode. Specify the operating radio frequency channel from the pull-down menu. Note that
the available channels differ from country to country, and the channel number must be the same
between the entries/stations within the range, so that each can communicate with the others. While
in the Access Point mode, the channel number would be the same as the associated access point.
Thus, there’s no need to manually set up the value.

Transmit Rate
This command allows you to indicate the rate of transferring the data packet from the associated
access point or any nodes within the range. There are four options for you: Auto 1 or 2 Mb, 5.5 Mb,
11 Mb, and Fully Automatic. Specify the rate according to the speed of your wireless network from
the provided options, or you may simply choose Fully Automatic to set the best available rate
according to the received signal quality and the capabilities of the associated access point or station.

The Encryption Tab
Click the Encryption tab to define the encryption settings for a specific profile. It offers you various
options concerning the so-called WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) to maintain the secure management
in a wireless LAN environment. See the explanations below for more details, and before making an
activation of any new settings, click Apply. To leave the window, click OK. To undo the new settings,
