Ejecting the Wireless LAN card


After disconnecting from the LAN, you can eject the Wireless LAN card from the PC
Card slot of the notebook.

NOTE: In Windows XP/2000/Me/98 operating systems, you do not have to power down
the notebook to remove the card. The card is hot swappable — you can remove the card
when the notebook is powered on. However, Microsoft recommends that you stop the
card. Refer to your Windows XP/2000/Me/98 online help for information on stopping the
Wireless LAN card.

Most notebooks have an eject lever or button for ejecting PC cards from the PC slot.
Consult your notebook manual for details.

Warning!

To prevent data loss, do not eject the Wireless LAN card
when data transmission is taking place. Exit your
communications program normally, stop the card if
necessary, and then remove the card.



After hardware installation is complete, proceed to Chapter 3 to install the device
drivers.
