more control over network connections because they
pass through an access point. A wireless device can
access the services that are available in a regular wired
LAN: company database, e-mail, the Internet, and
other network resources, for example.
• In the ad hoc operating mode you can send data to and
receive it from other devices with compatible wireless
LAN support , for example, to be printed. These
functions may require an additional third party
application to work. No wireless LAN access point is
required. Simply make the necessary configurations
and start communicating. Ad hoc networking is easy
to set up, but communication is limited to devices that
are within range and support compatible wireless LAN
technology.
