Using the Belkin Wireless Client Utility

(d) Start Ad-Hoc Network

When this option is selected, the Card will create a new ad-hoc network for any available computer in the area that is configured to be used in ad-hoc mode to connect to this computer.

(e) SSID

Enter the SSID of the network you want to connect to or create.

(f) Power Settings

Drag the sliding bar to select a power level. Higher settings enable the highest performance, lower settings draw less power from your PC when you want to conserve battery power or when you are within close range.

(g) Security Settings Box

The Security Settings box includes choices for configuring a secure connection. Please see the “Securing your Wi-Fi Network” section of this User Manual for information on setting up security for this Card.

(h) Save & Activate

Click “Save & Activate” to save the settings on this window.

(i) Cancel

Click “Cancel” to choose not to save any settings and exit this window.

(j) Advanced

The Advanced button opens the “Advanced Profile Settings” window. These settings enable you to take advantage of the enhanced performance features of the Belkin Router. We recommended that you keep the default “Auto” settings, because they provide compatibility

with basic and enhanced data rates and network density. This window also allows you to choose the transmit rate between the Card and Router.
