Figure 3-2 shows a typical scenario
of four Wireless-G Ethernet Bridges
in ad-hoc mode. Figure 3-3 shows a
typical wireless bridging scenario
using two Wireless-G Ethernet
Bridges. Each wireless network is
connected to a Wireless-G Ethernet
Bridge through a switch. A separate
notebook computer is equipped with
a wireless PC card and can commu-
nicate with both wireless networks as
long as it has the same SSID and
channel as both wireless networks.
