equipment is also Wi-Fi certified.

using Bluetooth?
No, you can only connect the IEEE802.11b WLAN Adapter 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 “Infra-
structure” mode. Without Access Points, you can still build a network
where adapters 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, tap
