Introduction This high-speed Wireless LAN card provides you with an innovative wireless networking solution. The Card is easy to set up and use.
What is Wireless LAN? Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) systems offer a great number of advantages over traditional wired systems. WLANs are flexible and easy to setup and manage. They are also more economical than wired LAN systems. Using radio frequency (RF) technology, WLANs transmit and receive data through the air. WLANs combine data connectivity with user mobility. For example, users can roam from a conference room to their office with- out being disconnected from the LAN.
LAN Modes Wireless LANs can be configured in one of two ways: Ad-hoc Networking Also known as a peer-to-peer network, an ad-hoc network is one that allows all workstations and computers in the network to act as servers to all other users on the network. Users on the network can share files, print to a shared printer, and access the Internet with a shared modem.
Notes on wireless LAN configuration When configuring a wireless LAN (WLAN), be sure to note the following points: l Optimize the performance of the WLAN by ensuring that the distance between access points is not too far. In most buildings, WLAN cards operate within a range of 100 ~ 300 feet, depending on the thickness and structure of the walls. l Radio waves can pass through walls and glass but not metal.
