Windows® XP Configuration Utility

Windows® XP users may use the built-in wireless utility. The following instructions are for Service Pack 2 users. If you are using Windows® 2000, you must use the D-Link utility. Please refer to page 15.

If you receive the Wireless Networks Detected bubble, click on the center of the bubble to access the utility.

Right-click on the wireless computer icon in your system tray (lower-right corner next to the time). Select View Available Wireless Networks.

The utility will display any available wireless networks in your area. Click on a network and click the Connect button.

Refer to the Wireless Security section for information on connecting to a secure network.

If you want to use the D-Link utility instead of the Windows® XP wireless utility, refer to the next page.
