INSTALLING THE CARD
Step 2: Installing the Card into your PC
1. POWER OFF THE COMPUTER AND DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD.
2. Remove the screws that secure the computer cover and remove the cover.
3. Touch any metal part of the case to ground yourself. This will discharge any
static electricity that could damage your product or your computer.
4. Locate an empty PCI expansion slot. Confirm that the Card will fit into the
slot you have chosen.
5. Remove the port cover from the back of the PC that corresponds to the PCI
slot you selected. If there is a screw, place it in a safe place as you will be
using it to attach the Card to the computer chassis later.
6. Push the Card firmly into the PCI slot that you have chosen. Apply pressure
as needed until the connector is fully seated.
7. Now secure the Card with the screw that you previously placed in a safe place.
8. Carefully screw the antenna’s gold
connector onto the threaded
connector on the Card until it
is finger-tight. Do not use a
wrench to tighten the connector.
Place the antenna on top of the
computer’s case or on top of
your desktop while taking care
to keep it away from any solid
metal objects.
9. Replace the computer’s cover.
10. Now that the Card is installed,
you can reconnect all of the
cables and turn the computer
back on. Proceed to Step 3.
