Wireless Zero Configuration

Wireless Zero Configuration Service (Windows XP)

Windows XP offers the Wireless Zero Configuration Service to support 802.11b and 802.11g wireless networking. This service automatically polls the area for available wireless access points. If an available wireless access point is found, Windows attempts to connect to the access point. If no available wireless access points are found, you must manually add the access point information to connect (for example when the SSID is not broadcasted).

Note: The Wireless Zero Configuration Service and Client Manager do not function properly together. If you want to use Client Manager, you must disable the Wireless Zero Configuration Service.
