Operating modes

There are two operating modes in Wi-Fi: infrastructure and ad hoc.
The infrastructure operating mode allows two kinds of communication: wireless

devices are connected to each other through a Wi-Fi access point device, or wireless

devices are connected to a wired LAN through a Wi-Fi access point device.
In the ad hoc operating mode, devices can send and receive data directly with each

other.
