For example, if you use your notebook PC to connect to a wireless network in an office and a

wireless network in your home, you can create a profile for each wireless network. Then, you can

easily load the profile that has all the configuration settings you need to join the network you are

using at the time.

There are two types of wireless network connections you can configure:

• Infrastructure Mode — uses the 802.11 infrastructure mode.

• Ad-hoc Mode — uses the 802.11 ad-hoc mode
