The peer-to-peer wireless network is mainly used for the exchange of files between two or more computers. Because there is no wireless access point (AP), the strength of the signal directly affects the file transfer speed. Therefore, the distance and placement position between the computer should also be adjusted appropriately. Configuring Windows XP provides WINDOWS XP provides good support for wireless networks, which can be set directly in the Network Connection window without having to install a wireless network client. The so-called "wireless network client" is a software that is specifically used to help us connect the Internet when the operating system does not support wireless network technology. Below, let's talk about some specific settings. Step 1 Opens the Network Connection window as shown in the Control Panel. Step 2 Right-click the Wireless Network Connection icon, click Properties in the shortcut menu, display the Wireless Network Connection Properties dialog box as shown.
Step 3 Select the Wireless Network Configuration tab and select "Use Windows to configure my Wireless Network Configuration" check box to enable the automatic wireless network configuration. Step 4 Click the Advanced button to display the Advanced dialog box as shown. Step 5 Select "Only the computer to the computer (specific) option, implement the connection between the computer. If you are directly connected to your computer, it is retained to the function of connecting to an access point, you can select any available network (preferred access point) option. It should be noted that in the preferred access point wireless network, if there is a available network, you usually try to connect to the access point wireless network. If the access point network is not available, try connect to the peer wireless network. For example, if you use a laptop in the access point wireless network, then bring your laptop to your computer to your computer home network, the automatic wireless network configuration will change the wireless network settings as needed, so you can do anything else. Connect directly to the home network. Step 6 Click the "Close" and "OK" button to create a wireless connection between the computer, display the information box as shown, prompting the wireless network connection successfully. Since Windows 98 / ME / 2000 / XP can automatically assign IP addresses to computers, that is, even if there is no IP address for the wireless network card, and when there is no DHCP server in the network, the computer will automatically obtain an IP address from the address segment, And communicate with each other, thereby sharing folders and printers. However, if you want to implement all the functions of the network, you should assign an IP address for each network card, especially for small networks.
Configuration of WINDOWS 98 / ME / 2000 does not provide support for wireless networks in Windows 98 / ME / 2000, so client software "Client Manager" to be used by the client software software "Client Manager" provided by the manufacturer can implement the management of the wireless network. Configuration. Most wireless device vendors use the software used in the screenshots, so you don't have to worry about it in your own installation. Step 1 Click Start → Programs → Wireless → Client Manager to display the Wireless Client Manager window as shown. Step 2 Select "Add / Edit Configuration Introduction" in the "Operation" menu, display the dialog box shown in the figure. Step 3 Click the Edit button to display the dialog box shown in the figure. If you click the Add button, you can create a new wireless network configuration. If your computer is frequently moved in your home and office network, you can create multiple profiles, simply simply integrate the wireless network that matches it quickly.
Step 4 Select "Pesee Working Group" option in the Network Type drop-down list to display the dialog box shown in the figure. Step 5 Click the Scan button to scan and display the currently available peer wireless network, as shown. Step 6 Select the Searched Wi-Fi in the list and click the "OK" button. Step 7 Click the "Next" button to display the dialog box shown in the figure. Check the Enable Data Security check box, encrypt when data transfer, ensure communication security of the wireless network. In the Key, keys to set the key. Of course, if the transmission is not a sensitive file, it is also possible to encrypt the check box. When transmitting is not encrypted, a computer resource will be taken less. Step 8 Click the "Next" button to display the dialog box shown in the figure. If you are using a laptop, you can select the "Open" option to enable the power management function to reduce the power consumption. Of course, wireless performance will also decrease, and communication rates and transmission distances will drop. When the power management is turned off, although more power is consumed, the wireless performance will increase, the communication rate and transmission distance will return to the default value. Step 9 Click the "Next" button to display the dialog shown in the figure. Select "Update the IP Address" check box when selecting this Introduction, automatically updates the IP address when the computer moves from a network to another. Step 10 Click the "Finish" button to return to the configuration main window, the wireless network connection is successful. The article sees here, you may feel that the installation is definitely not a problem. But I still have to say goodbye to you, because the product manufacturer is different, the quality of the wireless network card naturally has a high low. When connecting to the waiting wireless network, the quality of the NIC will have a problem with the signal strength. Transfer from: http://www.adhome.net/2005/3-4/103924.html
