For one, the SSID of the target network is required. You must also know whether encryption is used in the
target network, and if so, which type. You can also choose one of two different network types. The device
supports the infrastructure and ad-hoc network types.
Infrastructure: Select this type if you want to connect this wireless LAN device to a wireless LAN router or
access point.
Ad-hoc station: Select this type if you want to connect directly to another wireless LAN client device, e.g.
another USB stick or a WLAN PCI card without a wireless LAN router or access point. Two WLAN client
devices are required for this.
