D-Link DWA-64 User Manual

Section - Configuration

Connect to a Wireless Network

Using Windows

Windows

XP users may use the built-in wireless utility (Zero Configuration Utility). The following instructions are for

Service Pack 2 users. If you are using another company’s utility or Windows

2000, please refer to the user manual

of your wireless adapter for help with connecting to a wireless network. Most utilities will have a “site survey” option
similar to the Windows

XP utility as seen below.

Right-click on the wireless computer icon in your system tray
(lower-right corner next to the time). Select

View Available

Wireless Networks.

If you receive the

Wireless Networks Detected bubble, click

on the center of the bubble to access the utility.

The utility will display any available wireless networks in your
area. Click on a network (displayed using the SSID) and click
the

Connect button.

If you get a good signal but cannot access the Internet, check the
TCP/IP settings for your wireless adapter. Refer to the

Networking

Basics section in this manual for more information.
