Data Rate

Indicates the throughput speed in Mbps of the wireless Ethernet connection
(1, 2, 5.5, or 11). The print server will automatically negotiate to the highest
possible rate.

SSID

Name that identifies your wireless network. When you configure the print
server in WP-Admin, it automatically detects the SSID (Service Set
Identifier) for the wireless network. The SSID must match for all nodes on
the network. The maximum number of characters that you can use in this
field is 32.

Wireless Mode

Mode used by computers on a wireless network to communicate with the
print server. WP-Admin detects this setting automatically, based on the
mode set in your wireless adapter software. To communicate, all computers
must be set to the same wireless mode as the print server (or an equivalent
mode).

Infrastructure

—Used when computers on the wireless network

communicate with the print server through an access point or base
station.

Ad Hoc (802.11b)

—Used when computers on the wireless network

communicate with the print server directly, without using an access point
or base station.

Pseudo Ad-Hoc

—Used for testing. Don’t select this mode in your

wireless adapter software or on the Wireless Server Configuration screen.

Auto

—Default factory setting. Auto mode attempts connection with

each of the other methods in turn. This mode enables the print server to
detect all your other wireless network settings (for example, IP address,
SSID, workgroup, etc.). If you move your print server to a different
wireless network, you must press the test button on the back of the print
server for at least five seconds to reset it to its factory defaults (including

Auto

mode). This enables the print server to detect the settings for the

new network.
