The Wireless Network Monitor Utility is a central point on your computer that
allows you to control your Wireless B USB Network Adapter. Here is a list of
the things you can do using the Utility:

Choose the wireless network you want to connect to

See a list of all available networks in the area

See information about the networks in the area that are available to you

Store profiles for each network that you connect to

Set power-saving options

Enable/disable the Adapter’s radio

Select the default view you will use to connect to your networks

View and refresh the Adapter’s network IP information

Opening the Wireless Network Monitor Utility

After you have installed the Adapter and the Utility, you will see an
icon in the lower right corner of your screen (near the clock).

This is called the system tray icon. The icon will be green when your
Adapter is connected to a network and it will be red when there is
no connection to a wireless network. After installation, the Adapter
will connect to your wireless network automatically. Double-clicking
on the system tray icon will open the Utility. Also, the installation
software placed a shortcut icon on your desktop. Double-clicking this
shortcut will open the Utility.
