installation
1.Insert the Wireless 802.11n PC Card logo-side up
into an empty PCMCIA slot of your
computer. You can insert the card
when the computer is on or off.
NOTE: Don’t force the card into
the slot. If the card doesn’t slide
into the slot smoothly, remove it and try inserting it again.
2.When the message
“Windows needs to
install driver software
for your Network
Controller” displays,
click “Don’t show this
message again for
this device” to
continue with the
installation.
3.Insert the enclosed driver CD in the CD-ROM drive and run the “Setup.
exe” program in the “Driver” folder. When the license agreement screen
displays, click “Yes” to continue with the card’s software installation.
NOTE: If Windows displays the message “An unidentified program
wants access to your computer,” select “Allow.”
4.When the Choose Configuration TxBurst or WiFi screen displays, select
“Optimize for WiFi
mode” for wireless
compatibility. To
enhance wireless
performance, you
can select “Optimize
for performance
mode”; however, in
this mode wireless
compatibility isn’t
guaranteed. (Refer
to the user manual
for details of performance mode.) Once either option has been chosen,
click “Next” to continue with the software installation. NOTE: If the
Found New Hardware screen displays again, ignore it and wait for the
next screen.
5.When the “Setup has finished installing” message displays, click “Finish”
to complete the driver installation.
Connecting to a Wireless Access Point
1.After completing the
driver installation, the
wireless configuration
utility icon displays
in the lower-right
corner of your
Windows desktop. Right-click on the icon and select “Launch Config Utilities” from the pop-up menu.
2. The configuration utility will automatically scan for wireless access
points, and all those found will be displayed (see above). Select an
access point and click “Connect.” NOTE: If the wireless access point
you want to connect to doesn’t show here, click “Rescan.”
3.If the SSID (the “service
set identifier,” or name of
wireless access point) you
want to connect is hidden,
a “Please enter SSID”
prompt will display. Enter
the SSID, then click “OK.”
NOTE: The SSID entered
must be identical to the SSID setting of the wireless access point.
4. If the wireless access point uses encryption (see above), a WEP password
or WPA preshared key needs to be entered. (Obtain whichever is
needed from the owner of the wireless access point you want connected.)
Once the correct entry is made, click “OK.” If the value entered here is
wrong, you will not be able to connect to the wireless access point.
NOTE: Authentication Type is automatically selected and should not
be changed.
5. If the wireless access point is successfully connected, a “Connected”
message displays at the lower-left corner of the wireless configuration
utility window. Click “OK” to exit.
NOTE: For advanced settings and other features of this Wireless 802.11n
PC Card, refer to user manual on the enclosed CD.
