Quick Configuration

This procedure explains how to quickly configure the wireless adapter
using Microsoft Windows XP. Note the following before performing this
procedure:

ˆ

You must be within reception range of a wireless router or access point
of the network.

ˆ

The wireless router or access point must be broadcasting its SSID.

ˆ

If the wireless router or access point is running WEP security, the
network authentication setting must be Open system or both Open and
Shared systems. The quick configuration procedure will not work if
WEP security is set to Shared system only.

To perform a quick configuration of the wireless adapter, perform the
following procedure:

The computer will detect the wireless network and display a prompt
