Network Name:
Network Name, also known as SSID (Service
Set Identifier), must be unique to distinguish
itself as a particular wireless network, while 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 texts 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 an intended
type from the two options. The Access Point
mode, which is also known as the Infrastruc-
ture 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 with each other 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.
