Wireless Zero Configuration Service (Windows XP)

and 802.11g wireless networking. This service automatically polls the area for
available wireless access points. If an available wireless access point is found,
Windows attempts to connect to the access point. If no available wireless ac-
cess points are found, you must manually add the access points.
