Introduction >>> 1.1 UB11B (MS-6823) - Wireless 11b USB Adapter UB11B (MS-6823), compliant with IEEE802.11b, is a high-efficiency wireless adapter for wireless networking at home, in office or in public places. This hot-plug, USB-interface adapter connects directly to any USBready desktop/notebook computers, so that you can share files, printers, and high-speed access the Internet over your existing wireless network easily, without disassembling your computer.
>>> 1.2 How UB11B (MS-6823) Works Ad-hoc Mode : An Ad-hoc network is a local area network or other small network, especially one with wireless or temporary plug-in connections, in which some of the network devices are part of the network only for the duration of a communications session. Users in the network can share files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem.
Infrastructure Mode : The difference between Infrastructure network and Ad-hoc network is that the former one includes an Access Point. In an Infrastructure network, the Access Point can manage the bandwidth to maximize bandwidth utilization. Additionally, the Access Point enables users on a wireless LAN to access an existing wired network, allowing wireless users to take advantage of the wired networks resources, such as Internet, email, file transfer, and printer sharing.
