6.2.3.2 PC/Laptop/PDA Configuration
This section shows how to configure your PC or notebook to run the sample programs.
Here we’re mainly interested in the PC or notebook that will be communicating wirelessly,
which is not necessarily the PC that is being used to compile and run the sample program
on the RCM5400W module.
When you are using an access point with your setup in the infrastructure mode, you will also
have to set the IP address and netmask (e.g., 10.10.6.99 and 255.255.255.0) for the access
point. Check the documentation for the access point for information on how to do this.
Infrastructure Mode (via Ethernet connection)
This section provides configuration
information for the three possible Wi-Fi
setups shown in Figure 11. Start by going
to the control panel (
Start > Settings >
Control Panel ) and click on Network
Connections
. The screen shots shown
here are from Windows 2000, and the
interface is similar for other versions of
Windows.
Check with your administrator if you are
unable to change the settings as
described here since you may need
administrator privileges.
1. Go to the Local Area Connection to
select the network interface card used you
intend to use (e.g.,
TCP/IP Xircom Credit
Card Network Adapter ) and click on the
“Properties” button. Depending on which
version of Windows your PC is running,
you may have to select the “Local Area
Connection” first, and then click on the
“Properties” button to bring up the Ether-
net interface dialog. Then “configure”
your interface card for an “Auto-Negotia-
tion” or “10Base-T Half-Duplex” connec-
tion on the “Advanced” tab.
NOTE: Your network interface card will
likely have a different name.
