1. Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of RangeLAN2 7100, an ISA
bus wireless LAN adapter. As with all members of the
RangeLAN2 family, RangeLAN2 7100 is a long range, high
performance, wireless LAN adapter card that allows your
computer to communicate with other computers on the network
without wires.
RangeLAN2 7100 was designed to be easy to use. In most cases,
you can use the default settings and just install the adapter board
into a standard PC/AT bus slot and load the driver — the same
way you are used to installing wired Network Interface Cards
(NICs). Then you're connected without wires to your network's
existing electronic mail, printers, software applications, and other
network resources. That's how simple it is!
The RangeLAN2 7100 may be placed in Windows 95, Windows
98, Windows 2000, or Windows NT computers, NetWare clients,
or in any network node that supports ODI or NDIS drivers. Your
RangeLAN2 7100 wireless clients “look” like standard network
nodes to the operating system.
Today, Proxim is the leading supplier of spread spectrum radio
networking technology for local area environments. Proxim’s
unmatched spread spectrum networking expertise and the
company's extensive experience serving the communications
needs of the mobile computing user are some of the reasons why
RangeLAN2 is a market leader and why it has been chosen by
more OEM integrators than all other alternatives combined.
