Link Status
The field will display the current state of the wireless adapter.
1. Associated - means that the wireless adapter is connected to
another wireless adapter or Access Point / Wireless Gateway
Router. The MAC address of the wireless adapter or Access Point
will be displayed in hex format i.e. BSS ID (Basic Service Set ID) =
00:40:05:AC:11:32. Networking is available when the wireless
adapter is associated to an Access point or another wireless
adapter.

Access Point and trying to detect the SSID (Service Set ID) of an
Access Point within range.
NOTE: When the wireless is set to “Ad Hoc” mode, the wireless

work using the same SSID. If one is not found the driver will
“Start” its own Ad Hoc network.
