Installation

Windows XP/Server 2003

1. Upon starting Windows, before connecting the USB adapter, insert the included

Driver CD into the computer’s CD/DVD drive.

2. AutoPlay should automatically launch the Driver/Software installation splash screen.

If not, open “My Computer” then open the CD/DVD drive the Driver CD is inserted

into and double-click the file Setup.exe.

3. Select the option to install the Drivers. This will launch the Driver Installation wizard.
4. During the installation, you will be prompted to install only the drivers or also the

Ralink WLAN Utility. If you wish to use the built-in Windows utility for setting up

your wireless connection, then install the drivers only. If you do not wish to use

the built-in Windows Utility (Zero Configuration Utility), then also install the Ralink

Utility. NOTE: You can switch to using the Windows Utility at any time.

5. Complete the wizard and this will automatically install all of the drivers/software.
6. Connect the USB adapter to an available USB port. Windows will automatically

install the drivers.

NOTE: The USB cable has two connectors (Primary, Secondary). Only the Primary

connector must be connected. If the USB port is unable to provide enough power for the

adapter, then the Secondary connector can also be plugged in for supplementary power.
