SSID
Enter an SSID, which is the Network Name. Check with your network administrator for Network
Name (SSID).
TX Rate
Choose the transmit rate from the drop-down list - 1MB, 2 MB, Auto 1/2 MB, 5.5 MB, 11 MB, or
Fully Auto. The transmit rate is set to Fully Auto by default.

From the drop-down list, select
Peer-to-Peer=For communication between two (or more) radio stations (cards) without an AP.
Access Point (AP)=Infrastructure mode.

AP Search
Threshold
Select Low Density (default), Medium Density, or High Density from the drop-down list and
tap OK.
AP search thresholds are used for wireless client roaming between APs. In general, the higher
the density selected here, the easier your WLAN card roams between APs with the same SSID
in the same network. Roaming also depends on the relative signal strength of the AP.
OK
Tap this button to save the profile or changes to the profile.
Cancel
Tap this button to close the window without saving or modifying the profile.
Note: The SSID, Type, TX Rate, and Channel fields are unchangeable in AP mode, whereas TX Rate and
Channel fields can be changed in Peer-to-Peer mode.
