"infrastructure" network, your WLAN Card will automatically select the correct
frequency channel required to communicate with an Access Point, this parameter
will be fixed in "Auto" and cannot be changed. In an "Ad Hoc" network, you
can decide the channel number for the WLAN Card. Any WLAN Card can
communicate in the same network if they have the same frequency channel
setting.
