Intel(R) PRO/Wireless LAN Mini PCI Adapter User's Guide This document provides information for the following wireless devices: • Intel(R) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter, operating at 2.4 GHz These wireless adapters operate with high-capacity networks using multiple access points within large or small environments. Using the Intel(R) PROSet Windows utility you can configure, manage wireless local area network (WLAN) management tasks, adapter switching functions, and connections.
1.About Wireless LAN Technology A wireless network connects computers without using network cables. Computers use radio communications to send data between each other. You can communicate directly with other wireless computers, or connect to an existing network through a wireless access point. When you set up your wireless adapter, you select the operating mode for the kind of wireless network you want.
• Security—The 802.11 wireless networks use encryption to help protect your data. Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) uses a 64-bit or 128-bit shared encryption key to scramble data. Before a computer transmits data, it scrambles the data using the secret encryption key. The receiving computer uses this same key to unscramble the data. If you are connecting to an existing network, use the encryption key provided by the administrator of the wireless network.
simply carry the mobile receiver laptop as far down the street or around the building as you can go without losing significant signal strength. If possible, you should be aware of the types of networks being used by the companies on the floors above and below you, so that you can work together in harmony. With wireless networks, security is very important and if you communicate with those around you, you are better prepared to select the right channels, as well as the best location for access points.

• How many remote units do you have talking to each access point? • What channels are you using, and how are they dispersed? • How much coverage overlap is there between access points? • How high above the floor are the access points mounted? • What revision of Intel(R) PROSet software or other LAN software are you running? • What other electronic equipment is operating in the same band? • What construction materials are used in wall and floors? Users are dropped from the wireless network Sugg
Signal strength drops when a cell phone is used in the area Range also depends on the electronic environment. If other equipment that could cause interference is nearby, the range of your transceiver could vary widely, and could change suddenly when the other equipment activates. This is particularly true for 802.11b installations, which share their frequencies with microwave ovens, cordless phones, wireless hi-fi speakers, electronics toys and similar devices.

This is a low-level encryption technique designed to give the user about the same amount of privacy that he would expect from a LAN. It is extremely important to understand that WEP is not some CIA-proof supercode! It performs as intended, giving the user a simple level of data security and protection from casual electronic eavesdropping.
