Before you begin

If you have a Windows® XP or Windows® 2000 operating system, and you are installing this adapter on a PC you use at work, you must have “Administrator Rights”. This is normally determined by your IT person at work.

If you have used an earlier AT&T 802.11b Series adapter (or one by another manufacturer), you must uninstall all drivers and utilities before installing your new adapter. If your system has a built-in wireless adapter, you must disable it before installing your new adapter.
