Types of Wireless LAN Connections
The types of wireless LAN connections

AP connections.
 AP Connections
You can connect to the Internet or a
computer on the network by connecting
to AP on an AP-enabled network.
What is Access Point (AP)?
AP is a network device that connects
wired LAN to wireless LAN and
corresponds to the wireless hub of a
wired network. Also, AP allows you
to connect more than one computer
where wireless LAN is enabled.
 Small Ofce Network
The small ofce network interconnects
computers where wireless LAN is
enabled wirelessly and is called Peer-
to-Peer (or Ad HOC). This method
enables the conguration of a small
ofce network in one computer.
Then, another computer is connected
to the computer wirelessly for
communications.
For more information on how to
establish connections, see the
information from Start > Help and
Support > Networking and Web.
When you use Ad-Hoc, you have to
change the McAfee Firewall settings.
