LevelOne FreeCon WNC-0300 - Manual (Page 13)

Wireless Mode: There are two types available for selection
●Infrastructure – to establish wireless communication with LAN and other wireless
clients through the use the Access Points.
●Ad-Hoc – to establish point-to-point wireless communication directly with other
wireless client devices such as wireless network PCI Adapter.
AdHoc Band: There are two bands available for selection- 11B and 11G
Channel: The value of channel that AP will operate in. You can select the channel
range of 1 to 11 for North America (FCC) domain and 1 to 13 for European (ETSI)
domain and 1 to 14 for Japanese domain.
Tx Rate: Select the data rate for data transmission.
Power Mode: There are 3 modes to choose.
●Continuous Access Mode (default) – the PCI A
is constantly operating with full
power and it consum es the most power.
●Maximum Power Save – the device consumes the least power and only operates
when there is wireless network activity.
●Power Save – the device consumes the moderate level of power.
Preamble: Select Long or Short Preamble type. Preamble is a sequence of bits
transmitted at 1Mbps that allows the PHY circuitry to reach steady-state
demodulation and synchronization of bit clock and frame start. Two different
preambles and headers are defined: the mandatory supported Long Preamble and
header, which interoperates with the 1 Mbit/s and 2 Mbit/s DSSS specification (as
described in IEEE Std 802.11), and an optional Short Preamble and header (as
described in IEEE Std 802.11b). At the receiver, the Preamble and header are
processed to aid in demodulation and delivery of the PSDU. The Short Preamble and
header may be used to minimize overhead and, thus, maximize the network data
throughput. However, the Short Preamble is supported only from the IEEE 802.11b
(High- Rate) standard and not from the original IEEE 802.11. That means that stations
using Short-Preamble cannot communicate with stations implementing the original
version of the protocol.

Support Band:
●11B – IEEE802.11b only
●11G – IEEE802.11g only
