Introduction This User Guide is to guide you to install a Wireless LAN designed for both large and small business and SOHO environments and let you share a local printer and files, access internet, and roam about different working places. The attached drivers and utilities support for Windows 95 (OSR2), Windows 98, and Windows 2000, NT4.0 and Windows Millennium.
Installation Installation for Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows 2000 Before installing the driver, you will need a copy of the operating system installation media, usually a CD supplied with your computer or operating system. On Windows 98 systems, the installation files are sometimes archived on the hard disk in C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\CABS. On Windows 2000 systems, the system may prompt you to load operating system files from the Windows 2000 installation disk.
You can run the program manually by selecting Run from the Start menu and running SETUP.EXE from the CD-ROM drive. D:\ SETUP.EXE (if D:\ is your CD-ROM drive) 2. On the WLAN MiniPCI Card– Installation screen, click next to start software installation. Read the information in the Welcome dialog box and click “Next”. Then, click ““Yes”” if you accept the Software License Agreement. 3. Enter the name of the Wireless LAN Service Set of the wireless network (SSID) to which your computer will connect.
Configuration Mode (Network Mode) 1. Ad-Hoc: The Ad-Hoc network is also known as a peer-to-peer network. An Ad-Hoc networking does not need Access Point. Instead, the Ad-Hoc network is a loose association of wireless computers that can communicate with each other using Wireless LAN MiniPCI Card in Ad-Hoc Mode 2. Infrastructure: In a wireless infrastructure network, wireless stations communicate with an Access Point to connect to a wired network.
Encryption The Wireless LAN MiniPCI Card uses WEP encryption to protect wireless data communications. Encryption Selection WEP uses a combination of 40-bit keys or 128-bit keys to provide security for every data transmission. In order to decode a data transmission, an identical WEP key must be used by each wireless client on the network. Choose Enable or Disable to activate the security of wireless network.
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: 1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and 2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as the 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required.
European Notice Equipment with CE marking complies with the R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC), EMC Directive (89/336/EEC) and the Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC) issued by the European Community.
