WLAN Adaptor’s to enable the wireless communication?
This is not necessary. IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor is Wi-Fi certified
which means that it will work well with different branded equipment as
long as the equipment is also Wi-Fi certified.
A2: Can I connect IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor to other devices using
Bluetooth?
No, you can only connect the IEEE802.11b WLAN Adaptor to other
IEEE802.11b equipment.
B. Wireless LAN Connectivity
B1: How do I form a wireless network?
Typically, you can form a wireless network by connecting Access Points.
Different Access Points should have different channels. Every devices
connected to the network should have the same SSID. When you are
using Access Points, set the mode to “Infrastructure” mode. Without
Access Points, you can still build a network where adaptors communicate
peer-to-peer using a shared SSID. When you are not using Access
Points, change the operating mode to be “802.11Ad Hoc”. To set the
operating mode, click Start > Settings > System > Wireless LAN Utility >
Config.
