Step Two: Insert the 22 Mbps Wireless PC Card into your computer
Note: If you are prompted at any time for your Windows Operating System CD-ROM,
remove the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM and insert your Windows CD-ROM into the
CD-ROM drive. When all of the files are copied, remove the Windows CD-ROM, and reinsert
the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM.
Congratulations!
You have finished installing your hardware and your drivers! The 22 Mbps
Wireless PC Card is set to Auto Detect mode by default, which allows it to scan for and connect to
an existing wireless network or other wireless networking products in the area.
You should now see a small icon for the Configuration Utility in
the system tray by your clock. The Configuration Utility is used
to change or verify the configuration information that relates to
your 22 Mbps Wireless PC Card or PCI Adapter. The
Configuration Utility icon will be colored to indicate the status
of your wireless network: red for disconnected, yellow for
connected with poor quality, and green for connected with
good quality.
You must now configure each computer that has a 22 Mbps Wireless PC Card or PCI Adapter in
order to share Internet connectivity, files, and a printer. Refer to the User Guide on the Installation
CD for this information.
802.11b AdHoc mode is used for peer-to-peer network configurations. Infrastructure mode is
used to add a Wireless Access Point to the wireless network configuration for extended range and
increased number of computers that can join the network. Auto Detect mode allows the
Configuration Utility to search for a wireless network and automatically connect to it. Each 22
Mbps Wireless PC Card or PCI Adapter in the wireless network must have the correct mode
selected within the Configuration Utility. The 22 Mbps Wireless Cards and PCI Adapters are set to
Auto Detect by default.
For troubleshooting and technical support information, refer to the User Guide on the U.S.
Robotics Installation CD-ROM.
