Infrastructure Mode
The Infrastructure network uses an Access Point (AP) or several APs as a gateway, linking the
wireless network to a wired LAN. As a result, portable and desktop computers on your
wireless network have access to all of the features of your wired LAN, including e-mail,
Internet access, networked printers and file servers.
Note: Using the Aria extreme in Infrastructure mode, you can connect to 802.11b and 802.11g
compatible Access Points, but not to an 802.11a AP, since 802.11a devices are not compatible
with 802.11b/g devices.
