Step 4—Configure the HA311 Network Settings

NETGEAR supplies you with the HA311 Wireless PCI Adapter Configuration Utility program to provide information on your wireless network, such as signal quality and link conditions, and to let you modify the various configurable wireless parameters, such as SSID, enable the Turbo mode, etc.

Windows XP Users:

To enable Turbo Mode or configure the 152-bit WEP Encryption for HA311 on Windows XP, You need to disable the Zero Configuration feature first and invoke the HA311 Wireless PCI Adapter Utility later. The Zero Configuration feature can be disabled in the Wireless Network Connection Properties window by unchecking the “Use windows to configure my wireless network settings” default setting.

To launch the HA311 Configuration Utility:

Select the HA311 Configuration Utility from the NETGEAR HA311 Adapter Programs group or double-click the HA311 icon that appears in the Windows System Tray.
