8CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION
6If you are setting up an ad hoc wireless LAN, set "Channel" to the same radio channel as that used by the other wireless clients in your group. However, if you are connecting to a network via an access point, then use the same channel as that used by the access point (access point default: 3).
7Set "Mode" to ad hoc or infrastructure, depending on the type of network you want to connect to. Click OK (default: infrastructure).
8Set "RTS Threshold" to the same as that used by the other devices in your network (access point default: 2432).
9Set the "SSID" identifier to the same as that used by the ad hoc workgroup or access point you want to connect to (access point default: 101).
10For more secure data transmission, set the "Use WEP" to "Enabled" to ensure wireless network security. The advanced Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is implemented in this card to prevent unauthorized access (default: Disabled).
If the access point you wish to connect to is set for encryption, you must also enable encryption on the wireless client. Click Encryption in the Wireless LAN Configuration Utility to go to screens where you can enable and configure encryption.
You must set the wireless client for the same encryption algorithm and shared key values as the access point it will associate with. Save the configuration settings and exit by clicking OK.
11Click "OK". At this point, depending on how your computer is configured, Windows 98/98SE may prompt you to insert the Windows 98/98SE installation CD to copy required system files. Follow the instructions displayed, then click "Finish."
