Installation for Windows
Setting the WaveLAN Parameters
WaveLAN/IEEE Turbo 11 Mb PC Card 3-17
■ When your computer runs the Windows NT operating system,
the Station Name field is not available. On these systems, the
diagnostic tools will use the “Computer Name” value from the
“Identification” tab.
Connecting to an Ad-hoc Network 3
In case you do not wish to connect to a network infrastructure, but
prefer to setup a small wireless workgroup as pictured in Figure
1-2 on page 1-2, you can enable the “Ad-hoc Demo Mode” tick
box.
In Ad-hoc Demo Mode, your computer will:
■ Ignore the WaveLAN Network Name
■ Ignore WavePOINT-II access points
■ Fix the radio to operate at its factory-set default channel.
This means that your WaveLAN IEEE station can communicate
with any other WaveLAN IEEE station within its range, provided
that these stations have been equipped with cards that have a
matching default radio frequency (see Table A-6 on page A-8).
