Creating a Wireless Access Point Network

Connecting to an access point
network in Windows 2000
If you use the Broadcom mini PCI card, connecting to an access point network
in Windows 2000 is similar to connecting to an access point network in
Windows XP. For more information, see
“Using the Broadcom Wireless
Configuration Utility” on page 82 .
If you use the Intel or Agere ORiNOCO mini PCI card, you cannot connect to
an access point network using Windows 2000 without first creating a profile
in a client manager program. If your Gateway computer has built in wireless
networking using the Intel mini PCI card, see
“Using Intel PROSet” on page 86 .
If your Gateway computer has built in wireless networking using the Agere
ORiNOCO mini PCI card, see
“Using the ORiNOCO Client Manager” on
page 92 .
If your Windows 2000 computer does not use the Broadcom Wireless
Configuration Utility, Intel client manager, or Agere client manager, see the
documentation that came with your wireless networking solution.
If you do not know which card you have, see “To determine which wireless
adapter is installed in your computer:” on page 52 .
