MAC Address - By default, the Ethernet Converter transmits

its own MAC address, but you may change this so that it

transmits the MAC address of the first device plugged into it

to transmit a data packet.
SSID - In the SSID field, enter the SSID name of the wireless

network that the Ethernet Converter is to connect with. Use

the same SSID as your router/access point. You may find

available broadcasting SSIDs by pressing the Search button.
Wireless Network Type - Choose between Infrastructure

(Access Point Based) or Ad-hoc (Client to Client).
Wireless Channel - The channel will be automatically selected in Infrastructure networks.

For Ad-hoc networks, both clients must be set to the same channel.
Wireless Mode - The wireless mode only applies to Ad-hoc connections. If the Ethernet

Converter is making an Ad-hoc connection with an 802.11b client, then select 802.11b

from the drop down menu. If an 802.11g client is connecting to the Ethernet Converter

then select the Auto-802.11g-802.11b option.
BSS Basic Rate Set - The basic rate set only applies to Ad-hoc connections. Select the

proper rate set for the Ad-hoc client the Ethernet Converter is going to associate with.

Older routers may require that you reduce the BSS Basic Rate set to Default(11b). If you

are unsure of the correct setting, try Default.
