This screen provides two options for setting up the Adapter.

•Available Wireless Network. (For most users.) Use this option if you already have a network set up. The networks available to this Adapter will be listed on this screen. You can choose one of these networks and click the Connect button to connect to it. Click the Refresh button to update the Available Wireless Network list.

•Manual Setup. If your network is not listed on this screen, select Manual Setup to set up the adapter manually. This method of setting up the Adapter is intended for advanced users only.

The setup for each option is described under the appropriate heading on the following pages.

Click Exit to return to the Profiles screen.

Available Wireless Network

The available networks are listed by SSID. Select the wireless network you wish to connect to and click the Connect button. (If your network is not listed, you can click the Refresh button to bring the list up again.)

If the network utilizes wireless security, you will need to configure security on the Adapter. If not, you will be taken directly to the Congratulations screen.

2.If your network has WEP, WPA Personal, or WPA2 Personal wireless security enabled, then that security screen will appear. Continue to the screen for your wireless security.

•WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

If your network has the wireless security WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), this screen will appear. You must enter the same security settings used on your network.
