The Wireless Mode has two options: Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc.
HotSpotzz uses the Infrastructure mode.
The Channel should always be set to 1.
The Transmit (Tx) Rate can be set to Auto for WLAN PC Cards that
support higher speeds (802.11g) or can be set to 11 (the maximum
transmit rate for 802.11b).
The Power Mode is used to conserve the Laptop's battery. If the laptop
is plugged into a power source then Continuous Access Mode is the
recommended setting. If the user is concerned about saving battery
power, change the Power Mode to either Power Save or Maximum Power Save.
To save any changes, click Apply and the AirPlus Xtreme Utility will
