3.3 IEEE802.11b WLAN Utility

802.11b WLAN USB Adapter has its own management software, named IEEE802.11b WLAN Utility, and users can control all functions provided with it. The Utility icon appears in the Windows System Tray after clicking the IEEE802.11b WLAN Utility shortcut on your desktop. The Utility includes six tabs: LAN Status, Setting, Site Survey, Link Information, Diagnostic and About.

The definition of the color of the Utility icon is as follows:

Connected (Green)

Low quality (Yellow)

Disconnected (Red)

In Ad Hoc mode, in one workgroup, the Channel and SSID of each station must be the same—therefore they can communicate with each other within the local LAN properly. Moreover, all connected computers should have the same net ID and subnet ID.

To open IEEE802.11b WLAN Utility, you may double click the status icon in the Windows System Tray.
