3.4 Usage Model
l Ad-hoc Networking
Ad-hoc network also is called Peer-to-Peer network. Without Access Point, notebook
users with each 11Mbps Wireless High Rate PC card can build a Ad-hoc Peer-to-Peer
wireless networks to share files with each other, share a public office printer and other
peripheral resources, and even access the Internet via a modem.
l Infrastructure Networking
802.11b-compatible Access Point is a bridge or router for connect to the wired
Ethernet network and wireless network. Through the deployment of Access Point,
wireless LAN can be extended to the reach of a wired network. Therefore, A notebook

user with 11Mbps Wireless High Rate PC Card can access to fixed local network
resources.
2. Installation for Windows 95 and 98
2.1 Software Installation
l Windows find a new hardware described as INTERSIL-HFA384x/IEEE and then
show a dialog to ask for the driver of this new hardware.
l Please insert the CD-ROM labeled 11Mbps Wireless High Rate PC Card.
l If your CD-ROM Drive is located in the D drive. Please execute the setup program on
CD-ROM. For examples,
D:\Setup <Enter>

l Display the dialog of Welcome and press Next icon.
l Display the dialog of Software License Agreement. If you agree this agreement,
please press Yes icon.
l Then, the dialog shows Enter the System ID of your Wireless LAN. The default
string of SSID is IEEE 802.11 LAN. You can change this name at any time via the
task bar.
l The next dialog shows Enter the Network Mode. Please choose Infrastructure if the
wireless communication is done via an 802.11 Access Point. Otherwise, choose Ad
Hoc network.
l Continue to follow all directions to install drivers and utilities.
l Finally, the dialog requests to restart the computer. Click Finish.
2.2 Hardware Installation
