    Hello,


     


    Yes for the Home/Office.


    For Stealth depends on your environment, if you are connected to a router and also use wireless printers, I would advise disabling it.


    Generic is the option that allows the product to remember the above settings on this adapter, otherwise on the next reboot it will take the Network type chosen by the user when he first connected on that network (Windows Network prompt)

    Hello,


     


    When you are connected to the internet directly, no home router. However nowadays everyone has a home router.


  • Hello Sorin,


    why do you not remove this option, when it´s useless for nearly all users? I believe, that 99,9% of your customers uses a router.

    Hello,


     


    Simply because there are customers without a router and customers that connect to public Wi-Fi. (Libraries/McDonalds/Starbucks etc.)
