Transmit Power Level - Specifies the preferred power level at which
your client adapter transmits. Although the adapter supports up to 100
mW, the transmit power level that is actually used is limited to the
maximum value allowed by your country's regulatory agency (FCC in the
U.S., DOC in Canada, ETSI in Europe, TELEC in Japan, etc.).
Reducing the transmit power level conserves battery power but
decreases radio range.
Power Save Mode - Sets your client adapter to its optimum power
consumption setting.
CAM (Constantly Awake Mode), Fast PSP (Power Save Mode), or Max
PSP (Max Power Saving) Default: CAM (Constantly Awake Mode)

802.11b Preamble - Determines whether your client adapter uses both
short and long radio headers or only long radio headers.
Wireless Mode - Specifies the frequency and rate at which your client
adapter should transmit packets to or receive packets from access
points.
Wireless Mode when starting Ad hoc network - Specifies the
frequency and rate at which your client adapter should transmit packets
to or receive packets from other clients (in ad hoc mode).
Channel - Specifies the channel that your client adapter uses for
communications in a 2.4-GHz ad hoc network. The available channels
conform to the IEEE 802.11 Standard for your regulatory domain.
The channel of the client adapter must be set to match the channel used
by the other clients in the wireless network.
802.11 Authentication Mode - Specifies how your client adapter
attempts to authenticate to an access point. Open and shared
authentication do not rely on a RADIUS server on your network.
Preferred Access Points
If this profile is configured for use in an infrastructure network and you want to
specify up to four access points to which the client adapter should attempt to
