Chapter 2 Installation Guide

1. Connect one end of the USB cable to the Adapter.

2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port on your computer. Because the

Adapter gets its power from the host, there is no external power supply. The LED should light

up when the Adapter is plugged in and the PC is on.

) Note:

The Adapter can also be plugged into the USB port on your computer directly.

The Adapter’s Setup Wizard will guide you through the installation of the Utility and drivers for

Windows 2000, XP and Vista.

Before you install the software, please plug the adapter into your PC. After that, you will be

prompted “Found New Hardware Wizard”, click the Cancel button, and run the Setup Wizard

program on the CD-ROM.

The Setup steps for Windows 2000, XP and Vista are very similar, so the following installation

guide takes Windows XP for example.

1. Insert the Resource CD into your CD-ROM drive, click the Start button and choose Run. In

the field that appears, enter F:\TL-WN827N\Setup.exe (if “F” is the letter of your CD-ROM

drive), Figure 2-1 should then appear.
