Users on the network can share files, printers and access the internet with a shared modem. When in ad hoc mode, the Azure Wave AW-GA800 Wireless LAN USB 2.0 Adapter connects to another wireless device within its effective range and communicates with each other in the same LAN workgroup. Select this configuration when no access point is present in your wireless network. Mobil station 1 ADSL Modem Mobil station 2 RealTek RTL8187L 2.4.2 Infrastructure mode Mobil station 1 ADSL Modem The biggest difference between infrastructure mode and ad-hoc mode is that it includes an access point. In infrastructure mode, an access point establishes the network that provides wireless links in the validating range for clients to communicate with each other or with a wired network to the internet. On an infrastructure network, the access point may manage the bandwidth to maximize utilization. Infrastructure networking has the following advantages over ad-hoc networking:
Range Extension RealTek RTL8187L Access Point Each wireless LAN enabled computer within the range of the access point can communicate with other wireless LAN enabled computers within the valid range of signal from the access point.
Roaming A wireless LAN enabled computer can physically move from the operating range of one access point to another without losing connection to the LAN. A quick association hand-shake is made between the new access point and the wireless device as the computer traverses from the coverage of one access point to another. 2-4
