Operating modes
There are two operating modes in WLAN: infrastructure 
and ad hoc.
The infrastructure operating mode allows two kinds of 
communication: wireless devices are connected to each 
other through a WLAN access point device, or wireless 
devices are connected to a wired LAN through a WLAN 
access point device.
In the ad hoc operating mode, devices can send and receive 
data directly with each other. To create an internet access 
point for an ad hoc network, see ‘Access points’, p. 128.
