Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Welcome
The Wireless Network Adapter is a powerful 32-bit Cardbus/PCI Adapter that
installs quickly and easily into PCs. The Adapter can be used in Ad-Hoc mode to
connect directly with other cards for peer-to-peer file sharing or in Infrastructure
mode to connect with a wireless access point or router for access to the Internet
in your office or home network.
The Wireless Cardbus/PCI Adapter connects you with 802.11g networks at up to
an incredible 54Mbps! And for added versatility, it can also interoperate with all
the up to 11Mbps 802.11b products found in homes, businesses, and public
wireless hotspots around the country. And in either mode, your wireless
communications are protected by industrial-strength WPA, so your data stays
secure.
