Wireless LAN Modes Using this Device
Ad Hoc Mode
(See Figure A-1) "Ad Hoc Mode" refers to a wireless network architecture where wireless network
connectivity between multiple computers is established without a central wireless network device,
typically known as Access Point(s). Connectivity is accomplished using only client devices in a peer-to-
peer fashion. That is why Ad Hoc networks are also known as peer-to-peer networks. Ad Hoc networks
are an easy and inexpensive method for establishing network connectivity between multiple computers.
Ad Hoc mode requires that the SSID, network authentication, and encryption key settings are identically
configured on all computers in the Ad Hoc network.
