Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

4.1

What and how to find my PC’s IP and MAC address?

IP address is the identifier for a computer or device on a TCP/IP network. Networks

using the TCP/IP protocol route messages based on the IP address of the destination.

The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers

separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 191.168.1.254

could be an IP address.

The MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number.

(On an Ethernet LAN, it's the same as your Ethernet address.) When you're connected to

the Internet from your computer (or host as the Internet protocol thinks of it), a

correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address

on the LAN.

To find your PC’s IP and MAC address,

Your PC’s IP address is the one entitled IP Address and your PC’s MAC address is

4.2

What is Wireless LAN?

A wireless LAN (WLAN) is a network that allows access to Internet without the need

for any wired connections to the user’s machine.

4.3

What are ISM bands?

ISM stands for Industrial, Scientific and Medical; radio frequency bands that the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC) authorized for wireless LANs. The ISM bands are

located at 915 +/- 13 MHz, 2450 +/- 50 MHz and 5800 +/- 75 MHz.

4.4

How does wireless networking work?

The 802.11 standard define two modes: infrastructure mode and ad hoc mode. In

infrastructure mode, the wireless network consists of at least one access point connected

to the wired network infrastructure and a set of wireless end stations. This configuration

is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). An Extended Service Set (ESS) is a set of two or

more BSSs forming a single subnetwork. Since most corporate WLANs require access

to the wired LAN for services (file servers, printers, Internet links) they will operate in

infrastructure mode.

Example 1: wireless Infrastructure Mode

Ad hoc mode (also called peer-to-peer mode or an Independent Basic Service Set, or

IBSS) is simply a set of 802.11 wireless stations that communicate directly with one

another without using an access point or any connection to a wired network. This mode

is useful for quickly and easily setting up a wireless network anywhere that a wireless

infrastructure does not exist or is not required for services, such as a hotel room,

convention center, or airport, or where access to the wired network is barred (such as for

consultants at a client site).

Example 2: wireless Ad Hoc Mode

4.5

What is BSSID?

A six-byte address that distinguishes a particular a particular access point from others.

Also know as just SSID. Serves as a network ID or name.

4.6

What is ESSID?

The Extended Service Set ID (ESSID) is the name of the network you want to access. It

is used to identify different wireless networks.
