Leave black loops attached to white hooks. Peel off white strip backing and attach to adapter. Peel off black strip backing and attach to wall.

Install the Driver and Utilities Note: The following procedures assume you are installing the driver from the CD provided. If your PC does not have a CD-ROM drive, download the driver from Cisco’s web site. After you have installed the USB client adapter, the system automatically detects it, opens a New Hardware Found window, and starts collecting information for a driver database.
Follow these steps to install the utilities: After you have installed the appropriate driver for your system, you can install the Cisco Aironet Client Utilities (ACU), Link Status Meter (LSM), and Client Encryption Manager (CEM) utilities. Installing utilities is optional unless using Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) in your network. If WEP is enabled, all devices in the network must have the same WEP code, which you set using the CEM utility.
