Launch Manager and 802.11b Wireless LAN

By default, the 802.11b wireless LAN is set to “Always On”. You can

manually switch off the 802.11b wireless LAN by pressing the button. Manually turning off 802.11b wireless LAN does not change this default setting which is re-enabled when you restart your computer. You have to use the Launch Manager to set it to “Always Off”, so that when you turn on your computer, 802.11b wireless LAN will be off.

Only the administrator can change the setting in the Launch Manager.

For all other users, press the button, then wait for the following dialog box to display.
