Configuration of the WLAN Device
The WLAN Device can be configured to establish wire-
less network connectivity using one of the following
tools:
■
Windows XP Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC) -
The WZC allows for multiple profile setup and sup-
port for most industry standard security solutions.
■
Intel PROSet Software - The Intel PROSet Software
allows for multiple profile setup and supports auto-
matic profile switching. Support for most industry
standard security solutions as well as Cisco Compati-
ble Extensions (CCX) is contained in this software.
■ Atheros Client Utility - The Atheros Client Utility soft-
ware allows for multiple profile setups and supports
automatic profile switching. Support for most indus-
try standard security solutions, as well as Cisco Com-
patible Extensions (CCX), is contained in this
software.

CONFIGURATION USING WIRELESS
ZERO CONFIGURATION TOOL
This section explains the procedure to properly
configure the WLAN device using the WZC. Pre-defined
parameters will be required for this procedure. Please
consult with your network administrator for these
parameters:
Network Name - Also known as the SSID
Network Key (WEP) - Required if using static WEP
keys.
Authentication Type - Open, Shared, WPA, or WPA-
PSK
Procedure
1. Activate the WLAN device using the Wireless On/
Off Switch, the Intel PROSet software, or the
Atheros Client Utility.
2. Click the [Start] button first and then [Control
Panel].
3. If the Control Panel is in Category view, switch to
Classic view by clicking "Switch to Classic View"
which can be found in the left frame of the Control
Panel window.

7. Click [Refresh], then choose the correct SSID from
the [Available Networks] window. Click [Config-
ure] and proceed to step 8. Please note that only
wireless networks that broadcast their SSID will be
displayed. If the SSID of the wireless network is not
visible, you must manually add it. This can be
accomplished by clicking [Add]
8. From within the Association tab configure the
appropriate WLAN parameters. Please have ready
the following parameters:
■
Network name (SSID) - ASCII string of up to 33
characters used by the WLAN to logically separate
wireless networks.
■
Authentication Type - Options include Open,
Shared, WPA, or WPA-PSK
■
