WIRELESS NETWORK CONFIGURATION
WLAN USB Adapter uses its own management software. All functions
controlled by users are provided by this application. When you insert the
WLAN USB Adapter into the USB port of your PC, a new icon should
appear in the Windows System Tray automatically.
If the icon is in red, it means that WLAN USB Adapter configuration is
invalid or incomplete. Double click on that icon and the configuration
window will pop up as shown below. It shows the SSID of available
network. Once a network is chosen, the signal strength and link quality
are displayed.
The Link Quality and Signal Strength bar chart is only active when the
node is in Infrastructure Mode. The bar graph displays the quality and
strength of the link between the node and its Access Point. Link Quality
is a measurement of receiving and transmitting performances over the
radio.
Tx/Rx Frame displays the instantaneous wireless Transmit and Receive
throughput in bytes per second. These values are updated every two
seconds.
The Configuration Tool contains
several fields where operating
parameters of the driver can be
viewed or changed. Changes to
any of the parameters in this
panel can be applied to the driver
without a need to restart the
computer.
Current Network Information
displays the current network
configuration. If you want to
change network configuration, click “More Setting”.
