Started


There are basically two modes of networking.

Infrastructure – using a Wireless Router such as the DI-514, or an

Access Point

Ad-Hoc – directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer

communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer,
such as two or more DWL-650 wireless Cardbus adapters.
