World Mode
World Mode allows you to use your Wireless LAN Adapter in countries other than
your own. It makes the Wireless LAN Adapter use passive scanning (listening
only) until it hears an Access Point that also has World Mode enabled. It then
knows what frequencies and transmit power to use. If the Access Point does not
have World Mode enabled, YOU WILL NOT ASSOCIATE TO AN ACCESS POINT.
NOTE: Passive scanning increases the time that it takes the Wireless LAN
Adapter to associate. For this reason, you should only choose World Mode if you are
travelling to another country and wish to remain in compliance with local laws
regarding wireless communications.
